Answer:
2 5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
you can combine two fractions if they have the same denominator (bottom number) by adding the numerators (top numbers) and keeping the bottom number the same.
1/12+4/12 is the same as 1+4 you just put the sum over 12:
2 1/12+4/12= 2 5/12
it can also be written as 29/12
Answer:
5 should be subtracted from each term
Step-by-step explanation:
Cross multiply,
1 * (11 - x) = 2*(8-x)
11 -x = 2*8 - 2*x
11 - x = 16 - 2x
Subtract 11 from both sides,
-x = 16 - 2x - 11
-x = 5 - 2x
Add 2x to both sides
-x +2x = 5 - 2 + 2x
x = 5
One-sixth of an hour is 10 minute
10 minutes 3/4 chapter
Therefore, 10 minutes x 6= 3/4x6
Shawn can read 4.5 chapters in one hour
We can find this integer using a system of equations. The first thing we look at is the first sentence.
Let's call X The first integer,
Let's call Y the second integer.
So, X+Y=61 and X-Y= 1
Using Substituion on the second equation, we get
X=Y+1
(Now we plug in Y+1 into the second equation for X)
So,
(Y+1)+Y=61
2Y=60
Y=30
So, one of the integers is 30.
Now to find the second, we go back to
X=Y+1
X=30+1
X=31.
So, the integers are 31 and 30.
Hope this helps!
