Well, you take the two denominators and find a number that both numbers match. So 3/4 (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, etc.) and 3/9 (9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, etc.). Now take the first number that matches both numbers (36) and ask yourself, 'what do I have to multiply to get that number?' Well, for 4 and 36, you multiply 4 and 9 to get 36, and for 9 and 36, you multiply 9 and 4 to get 36. Then you multiply the top number by the same one you did with the bottom one. So you add up the two numbers, and you have your answer (3/4: 4*9=36 3*9=27 27/36 39: 9*4= 36 3*4=12 12/36 Total=12+27= 39/36=1 3/36=1 1/12). The answer is 1 1/12!
The point 0 represents the surface of the water. The height of the slide is 7 feet above the surface of the water. The bottom of the pole can be represented by -2 on the number line.
<h3>What is an equation?</h3>
An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.
Given that −8 represents the depth of water in the swimming pool. Hence:
The point 0 represents the surface of the water. The height of the slide is 7 feet above the surface of the water. The bottom of the pole can be represented by -2 on the number line.
