10+ ?= 49
⇒ ?= 49-10
⇒ ?= 39
10 plus 39 can give you 49~
In order to figure out whether Luis or Isabella skates farther to get to school, we have to create a common denominator between the two fractions that represent the distance that each person walks.
The least common denominator of 3 and 4 is 12. This means that we have to change both fractions into equal fractions with denominators of 12.
To figure this out, we must set up a proportion.
2/3 = x/12
To solve this proportion, we must cross-multiply the fractions. We get:
24 = 3x
If we divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 3, to get the variable x alone, we get:
x = 8
Therefore, 2/3 = 8/12, so Luis skates 8/12 mile from his home to school.
If we do the same process for the 2/4 mile to get to school for Isabella, we get 6/12, because both fractions are equal to 1/2.
Therefore, we know that Luis skates 8/12 mile to school and Isabella skates 6/12 mile to get to school. Because they have the same denominator, we can just compare the numerators. We know that 8 is greater than 6, thus Luis skates farther to get to school.
Answer:
a. number of boxes sold ≥ 50
b. 26 + x ≥ 50
Step-by-step explanation:
A = lw
Plug in what we know:
25/54 = (5/9)w
Divide 5/9 to both sides or multiply by its reciprocal, 9/5:
25/54 * 9/5 = w
Multiply the numerators and denominators together:
225/270 = w
Simplify:
<span>w = 5/6</span>
