The bar should be 8 1/24 from the each edge of the door.
We need to subtract 10 1/4 from 26 1/3 to get the fraction of the space not covered by the towel bar.
We also need to divide the difference by 2 because we placed the towel bar in the center of the door.
1st we need to convert the mixed fractions into fractions to perform subtraction.
26 1/3 = ((26*3)+1)/3 = 79/3
10 1/4 = ((10*4)+1)/4 = 41/4
Steps in Subtracting Fractions
Step 1. Make sure the denominator is the same. 3 and 4 are the denominators, they are not the same but they are factor of 12. So,
79/3 must be multiplied by 4 = 79 * 4 / 3 * 4 = 316 / 12
41/4 must be multiplied by 3 = 41 * 3 / 4 * 3 = 123 / 12
Step 2. Subtract the numerators and place them above the common denominator
316/12 - 123/12 = 316 - 123 / 12 = 193 / 12
Before we can simplify the fraction, we must divide it by two to get the measurement of each edge of the door.
Steps in dividing fractions.
Step 1. Get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
1st fraction : 193 / 12
2nd fraction : 2 /1 ⇒ reciprocal 1/2
Step 2. Multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction
193 / 12 * 1/2 = 193 * 1 / 12 * 2 = 193 / 24
Step 3. Simplify the fraction.
193 / 24 = 8 1/24
The answer is A. (1, 4), because when the values are substituted in to the equations, you get 1 = 4 - 3 and 1 + 12 = 13, which are both correct. I hope this helps!
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
We start by seeing how many families we have in total, which is 20. We then must subtract the number of families with girls only, the number of families with both boys and girls, and the number of families with no children. 20 - 7 is 13, then 13 - 8 is 5, and 5 - 0 is 5.
I gotchu the answer is -8.6
Divide 20 by 10 you get 2 wholes with no remainder so your answer is 2
