To simplify a fraction, you must find a number both the numerator and denominator can be divided into, and divide. Say I have 4/6. Both numbers are divisible by 2, so I simplify the fraction to 2/3. As we can no longer divide, the fraction is in simplest form. Hope this helps!
Answer:
For every 9 girls there are 8 boys!
Step-by-step explanation:
So for the box under 9 there would be 8 and the next box on top of 16 would be 18 because 2*8 is 16 and 2*9 is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:
Probability=
Probability for a randomly chosen girl to be senior=
Probability for a randomly chosen girl to be senior=
Probability for a randomly chosen boy to be senior=
Probability for a randomly chosen girl to be senior=
For two independent events,
Probability for both event 1 and event 2 to take place=
Since choosing boys and girls is independent,
Probability for both boy an girl chosen to be senior=
Probability for both boy and girl chosen to be senior=
So,required probability is 
So even postive integers are by defention in form 2k where k is a natural number so
let the sum of even integers to n=S
S=2(1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+......+k-1+k
divide bith sides of equation 1 by 2
0.5S=1+2+3+4+5+...........+k-1+k
S=2(k+(k-1)+..............................+2+1)
divide both sides of equation 2 by 2
0.5S=k+k-1+..............................+2+1)
by adding both we will get
___________________________
S=(k+1)(k)
so the sum will be equal to
S=

so let us test the equation
for the first 3 even number there sums will be
2+4+6=12
by our equation 3^2+3=12
gave us the same answer so our equation is correct
The distance of it away from zero cannot be a negative distance, distance is always positive therefor the absolute value will always be positive.
Short answer: no, absolute value is always positive
I hope this helps :)
