Who do you do the problem 7/9+1/7+3/5? please explain thoroughly.
Evgen [1.6K]
To add fractions you want to make sure that the bottom numbers are the same so we have to make them the same, but we have to make sure that the fractions are unchanged so we get the correct answer

so if we find out what number that 9,7, and 5 can all multiply into. we find that 9 times 7 times 5 or 315 is the number that will work

so to get them to all be over 315, we must multiply each fraction by a form of 1/1 or x/x or (number)/(same numbe as on top)

so 7/9 times (35/35)=245/315
1/7 times (45/45)=45/315
3/5 times (56/56)=168/315

we add them togther
245/315+45/315+168/315=(245+45+168)/315=458/315
this simplifies to 1 and 143/315

The product of two consecutive positive integers is 1 more than their sum. find the integers.
KengaRu [80]
2 consecutive positive integers....x and x + 1
" the product " means multiply and " the sum " means add

x(x + 1) = x + (x + 1) + 1
x^2 + x = 2x + 2
x^2 - 2x + x - 2 = 0
x^2 - x - 2 = 0
(x + 1)(x - 2) = 0

x + 1 = 0
x = -1......not this one because it is negative

x - 2 = 0
x = 2

x + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3

so ur numbers are : 2 and 3 <==
