Hello!

5 = 5/1 as a fraction

2/5 × 5/1 = 2

ANSWER:

The product of 2/5 and 5 is greater than 2/5, and less than 5.

Another way you could find out if it's greater or less is by converting the fraction to a decimal and then multiplying it.
You must divide the numerator by the denominator to convert a fraction to a decimal.

2 ÷ 5 = 0.4

0.4 × 5 = 2

Answer:

Option B. A = (5/6)^-⅛

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, we obtained:

(5/6)ˣ = A¯⁸ˣ

We can obtain the value of A as follow:

(5/6)ˣ = A¯⁸ˣ

Cancel x from both side

5/6 = A¯⁸

Recall:

M¯ⁿ = 1/Mⁿ

A¯⁸ = 1/A⁸

Thus,

5/6 = 1/A⁸

Cross multiply

5 × A⁸ = 6

Divide both side by 5

A⁸ = 6/5

Take the 8th root of both sides

A = ⁸√(6/5)

Recall

ⁿ√M = M^1/n

Thus,

⁸√(6/5) = (6/5)^⅛

Therefore,

A = (6/5)^⅛

Recall:

(A/B)ⁿ = (B/A)¯ⁿ

(6/5)^⅛ = (5/6)^-⅛

Therefore,

A = (5/6)^-⅛
