Huh? I dont get it can you explain
Solve for p:
p/8 + 3/8 = 25/8
p/8 + 3/8 = (p + 3)/8:
(p + 3)/8 = 25/8
Multiply both sides of (p + 3)/8 = 25/8 by 8:
(8 (p + 3))/8 = (8×25)/8
(8×25)/8 = (8×25)/8:
(8 (p + 3))/8 = (8×25)/8
(8 (p + 3))/8 = 8/8×(p + 3) = p + 3:p + 3 = (8×25)/8
(8×25)/8 = 8/8×25 = 25:
p + 3 = 25
Subtract 3 from both sides:
p + (3 - 3) = 25 - 3
3 - 3 = 0:
p = 25 - 3
25 - 3 = 22:
Answer: p = 22
When you're trying to find something in the simplest form, you have to find a common denominator. The best way to do this is to find the factors.
Factors of 3= 1, 3
Factors of 28= 1,2,4,7,14,28
In this case, the lowest factor is one, which is what they are currently in.
Therefore, 3/28 is currently in its simplest form
10! If you use the trapezoid area formula and plug in the known values, just solve for h(height)
