So

1/x * 3/8 = 5/8

1/x = 5/8 / 3/8

1/x = 5/3

x = 3/5

3/5 as a decimal is 0.6

The sum of the measures of two complementary angles exceeds the difference of their measure by 86_. Find the measure of each ang
Bad White [126]

As the sum of two complementary angles = a + b = 90 degree -------(1)

Difference of two complementary angles = a – b

According to question;

The difference of two complementary angles exceed the sume (90) by 86.

So

a – b = 90 – 86 = 4 -------(2)

adding equation (1) and (2);

2a = 90 + 4 = 94

a = 94 / 2 = 47

putting a = 47 in equation (1);

47 + b = 90

b = 90 – 47 = 43

<span>So angle a = 47 and angle b = 43</span>

Holly had 30 pencils.she gave 6 pencils to her friends .3/8 of her pencils need to be sharpened.How many of Holly’s pencils need
mafiozo [28]
This is the concept of algebra. Given that Holly has 30 pencils, the total number of pencils that Holly remained with after she gave her friends 6 pencils are:
Total=30-6=24 pencils 
The fraction of pencils that need to be sharpened is 3/8
The number of pencils represented by this fraction will be:
(fraction of un-sharpened pencils)×(total number of remaining pencils)
3/8×24
=9 pencils
therefore we conclude that 9 pencils are not sharpened.
