9/16 is greater.

9x2=18 9/16 Bigger

8x2=16 8/15 Smaller

4 0

I find that turning the fractions into decimals helps in this situation.
9/16 = 0.5625
8/15 = 0.5333

so 9/16 is greater then 8/15

Rewrite the expression using the GCF and the distributive property (39+91)

inessss [21]

Answer:

1. $13\cdot (3+7)$

2. $2,520

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Given numbers 39 and 91. Factorize them:

$39=3\cdot 13\\ \\91=7\cdot 13,$

then

$GCF(39,91)=13$

Use distributive property:

$39+91=3\cdot 13+7\cdot 13=13\cdot (3+7)$

2. Month salary = $2,100

To find 10% of $2,100, just multiply $2,100 by 0.1 (because 10% is 0.1 as decimal):

$\$2,100\cdot 0.1=\$210$

$210 is the monthly tax, then the year tax is

$\$210\cdot 12=\$2,520$

Answer:

$Let \ base = x\\5^2 = x^2 + 4^2\\25-16 = x^2\\9 = x^2\\x = 3\\\\\\opposite = 4\\adjacent = 3\\hypotenuse = 5\\Sin \theta = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{4}{5} \\\\Cos\theta = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} =\frac{3}{5}\\\\Tan \theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{4}{3}$
