She may have used a wrong operation to get this answer. 73 is not the correct answer, and you can prove it using a calculator or longhand. The correct answer is 6888.
In order to figure out whether Luis or Isabella skates farther to get to school, we have to create a common denominator between the two fractions that represent the distance that each person walks.
The least common denominator of 3 and 4 is 12. This means that we have to change both fractions into equal fractions with denominators of 12.
To figure this out, we must set up a proportion.
2/3 = x/12
To solve this proportion, we must cross-multiply the fractions. We get:
24 = 3x
If we divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 3, to get the variable x alone, we get:
x = 8
Therefore, 2/3 = 8/12, so Luis skates 8/12 mile from his home to school.
If we do the same process for the 2/4 mile to get to school for Isabella, we get 6/12, because both fractions are equal to 1/2.
Therefore, we know that Luis skates 8/12 mile to school and Isabella skates 6/12 mile to get to school. Because they have the same denominator, we can just compare the numerators. We know that 8 is greater than 6, thus Luis skates farther to get to school.
Answer:
7 + 8 = 7 + 7 + 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that, 'double plus one facts' is used to make the addition of numbers easy.
For e.g. we have 8 + 9 = 17. This addition can also be done as 8 + 8 + 1 = 17 i.e. we write first term twice and add 1 to get the result.
Hence, we give the name to this type of addition as 'double plus one'.
Now, we have to use this fact for 7 + 7.
So, we consider 7 + 8 = 15.
Therefore, 7 + 8 can be written as 7 + 7 + 1
Hence, the double plus one facts for 7 + 7 is 7 + 8 = 7 + 7 + 1.
