Answer:

Hanan collect \frac{3}{8} of a bag of clothes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ------> amount of clothing bag that Jenny collected

y ------> amount of clothing bag that Hanan collected

we know that

y=\frac{1}{2}x -----> equation A

x=\frac{3}{4} -----> equation B

Substitute equation B in equation A

y=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{3}{4})

y=\frac{3}{8}

therefore

Hanan collect \frac{3}{8} of a bag of clothes

A sum amount <br>to rupees 34476 in two and a half years at 4% CI. the sum is ​
Kruka [31]

Given:

Amount = Rs. 34476

Rate of compound interest = 4%

Time = 2\dfrac{1}{2}=2.5 years

To find:

The principal value.

Solution:

Formula for amount is

A=P\left(1+\dfrac{r}{100}\right)^t

Where, P is principal value, r is rate of interest and t is time in years.

Putting the given values, we  get

34476=P\left(1+\dfrac{4}{100}\right)^{2.5}

34476=P\left(1+0.04\right)^{2.5}

34476=P\left(1.04\right)^{2.5}

\dfrac{34476}{\left(1.04\right)^{2.5}}=P

Now,

P=31256.0090

P\approx 31256

Therefore, the value of sum or principal value is Rs.31256.

What is the solution to the linear equation?<br><br> –12 + 3b – 1 = –5 – b
marysya [2.9K]
-12+3b-1=-5-b
Combine like terms to get:
3b-13=-5-b
Add 13 to both sides:
3b= 8-b
Add b to both sides:
4b=8
Divide both sides by 4:
4b/4=8/4
b=2

Final answer
b=2

How do the gcf and the lcm help you when multiplying and adding or subracting fractions
kari74 [83]
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

GCF: the greatest common factor of numerator and denominator is a factor that can be removed to reduce the fraction.

  <em>Example</em>

The numerator and denominator of 6/8 have GCF of 2:

  6/8 = (2·3)/(2·4)

The fraction can be reduced by canceling those factors.

  (2·3)/(2·4) = (2/2)·(3/4) = 1·(3/4) = 3/4

___

LCM: the least common multiple of the denominators is suitable as a common denominator. Addition and subtraction are easily performed on the numerators when the denominator is common.

  <em>Example</em>

The fractions 2/3 and 1/5 can be added using a common denominator of LCM(3, 5) = 15.

  2/3 + 1/5 = 10/15 + 3/15 = (10+3)/15 = 13/15
