Two fractions equivalent to each: Just divide or multiply both top AND bottom by the same number.
5/6: 10/12 OR 15/18
15/30: 5/10 OR 1/2
45/60: 8/12 OR 4/6

Rewrite each pair or fractions with common denominator: Find the difference between the two bottom numbers, and multiply top and bottom number.

5/8 and 3/4: 4X2=8, 3X2=6. So, 5/8 and 6/8.
2/5 and 1/2: 2/5 and 2.5/5
9/9 and 5/7: 9/9 and ~5.7/9

Rewrite each in simple form: Find greatest common factor and divide.

9/54: 1/6
20/40: 1/2
100/110: 10/11

Are these fractions equivalent?
No. 5/1 and 5/5 are, because they are both 5 wholes. 1/5 is not because it is a fifth of a whole.

In what situation can you use multiplication to find equivalent fractions?
I'm sorry but I do not understand this question.
Source(s):I hope I helped, seeing as I have graduated with a math degree.

The purchasing director of a bank has just received a shipment of 100 printers. She has been told that the shipment includes 5 d

zaharov [31]

Since there is a 95% chance that you get two printers right, then you simply square the decimal equivalent which is .95 (Hence, you do .95^2). You will get .9025 (or 90.25%).

For letter b, you simply subtract .9025 from 1.
ans = 1-.9025
ans = .0975 (or 9.75%)

So the answer to B) would be there is a 9.75% chance the probability of a shipment can be rejected.

A prism has a right triangle as its base.

gavmur [86]

Answer:

168 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of the prism is a right triangle whose hypotenuse is 10 cm and one other side is 6 cm.

So, the third side of the triangle = $\sqrt{10^{2}-6^{2} }=8$ cm.

{Since we have applied the Pythagoras theorem.}

Hence, the area of the base triangle is $\frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times 6 = 24$ cm².

Therefore, the volume of the prism is = $24\times 7=168$ cm³ {Since volume of a prism is given by ( Area of the base triangle ) × ( Height of the prism )}
