Let's first start off by making 2/10 the same denominator as 5/100. To do this you would need to multiply both sides of the fraction by 10. You wild end up with 20/100. Now we worry about the striped fish. There are 5/100 striped fish, since we have the same denominator we can add them together! 20+5=25 25/100 is reduced to 1/4!

You need to get them both over the same denominator
so 2/10 = 20/100
20/100 + 5/100 = 25/100
25/100 = 1/4

At a fabric store, fabrics are sold by the yard. A dressmaker spent $36.35 on 4.25 yards of silk and cotton fabrics for a dress.

Given:

The system of equations that represent the constraints for the given situation is

x+y=4.25

16.90x+4y=36.35

To find:

The solution of given system of equations.

Solution:

We have,

x+y=4.25           ...(i)

16.90x+4y=36.35           ...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 4.

4x+4y=17           ...(iii)

Subtracting (iii) from (ii), we get

16.90x+4y-(4x+4y)=36.35-17

16.90x+4y-4x-4y=19.35

12.90x=19.35

Divide both sides by 12.90.

x=\dfrac{19.35}{12.90}

x=1.5

Put this value in (i).

1.5+y=4.25

y=4.25-1.5

y=2.75

The solution of system of equations is x=1.5 and y=2.75. It means, the yards of silk are 1.5 and yards of cotton are 2.75.

Question 4- You need to subtract the shortest bolt from the longest bolt, or 1 1/4 minus 3/8. Make 1 1/4 improper and make the denominator 8 so multiply 5x2=10 and 4x2=8. 10/8 - 3/8 equals 7/8 and thats your final answer. Hope this helped ;)
