Answer:
2 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the denominators are different, and there are whole numbers involved, then first make the fractions improper.
4 1/2 -> 9/2
6 2/3 -> 20/3
Next, make the denominators the same by multiplying each fraction by the denominator of the other.
9/2 * 3 = 27/6
20/3 * 2 = 40/6
Then you can subtract the numerators because the denominators are the same:
40/6-27/6= 13/6
Then you can convert to a mixed fraction if need be.
X represents the number that would be added to the silver cars.
x/40= 4
X=40x4
x=160
Subtract the given 20 from 160 because 160 is the total number
160-20=140
Therefore 140 would be added to 20 silver cars to get the ratio1:4
Answer:
The measure of each angle will be 10° and 170°.
Step-by-step explanation:
A supplementary angle refers to an angle that has the sum to be equal to 180°.
Let the small angle be represented by x
Therefore, the big angle will be: = 17 × x = 17x
Therefore, the value of both angles will be:
x + 17x = 180
18x = 180
Divide both side by 18
18x/18 = 180/18
x = 10
Therefore, the bigger angle will be:
17x = 17 × 10 = 170
Therefore, the angles are 10° and 170°
