Answer:

x ≥ 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

"2/3 of a number (x)" --->  (2/3)x

"Twenty-seven minus 2/3 of a number (x)" --->  27 - (2/3)x

"is not more than 36" can be rephrased as " is less than or equal to 36"

hence

27 - (2/3)x ≤ 36      (subtract 27 from both sides)

- (2/3)x ≤ 36 - 27

- (2/3)x ≤  9   (multiply both sides by -1, remember to flip the sign)

(2/3)x  ≥  -9  (multiply both sides by 3/2)

x ≥ -9 (3/2)

x ≥ 13.5

This calculator will first reduce the improper fraction to lowest terms by dividing numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor (GCF). The GCF of 45 and 10 is 5. The remainder is 1. With 1 as the numerator and 2 as the reduced denominator, the fraction part of the mixed number is 1/2.

George placed the numbers -1/2 , 8/9 , 0.2 and on the numberline . Which of the numbers is furthest from zero ?
dimaraw [331]
Furthest from 0, so I am going to take the absolute value of these numbers. The absolute value will tell us how far away from 0 these numbers are. 
|-1/2| = |- 0.5| = 0.5
|8/9| = |0.88| = 0.88
|0.2| = 0.2

so the number furthest from 0 is 8/9
