Answer:

<em>B) 24</em>

<em>D) 48</em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Two fractions

\dfrac{1}6 \\and\\\dfrac{3}8

To find:

Number that can be chosen as Common denominator such that numerator is also a whole number ?

Solution:

Common denominator for two fractions \frac{p}{q} and \frac{r}{s} is chosen as LCM or multiple of LCM of (q, s).

OR

Common denominator for two fractions is chosen as the Least Common Multiple or multiple of LCM of denominators of the two fractions.

The denominators of the given fractions are 6 and 8.

Let us factorize and try to find the LCM of 6 and 8.

6 = \underline2 \times 3\\8 = \underline2 \times 2\times 2

Common part of the denominators (as underlined) will be taken only once.

So, LCM = 2 \times 3 \times 2 \times 2 =24

Multiples of LCM, 24 = 48

So, the correct answers are:

<em>B) 24 </em>and

<em>D) 48</em>

What’s the answer pleazzzzz helplllllll 9m^2-4m-6 by 3m
dlinn [17]

Answer

D. 3m - 4/3 -2/m


<u>Explanation</u>

(9m²-4m-6) ÷ 3m  = 9m²/3m - 4m/3m - 6/3m

Carry out the division, each term is divided by 3m.

9m²/3m = 3m

- 4m/3m = -4/3

- 6/3m = - 2/m

Finally you will get,

<em>3m - 4/3 -2/m</em>

How to simplify fractions
REY [17]

\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}      You have to make the denominators(bottom of the fraction) the same in order to combine the fractions.


To make the denominator of \frac{1}{2} the same as \frac{1}{4}, you multiply the top and bottom of the fraction by 2 (because they both have a common multiple of 4)

\frac{1*2}{2*2}=\frac{2}{4}


So:

\frac{2}{4} +\frac{1}{4} =\frac{3}{4}
