Answer:
(12 2/3)/( 2 1/3)= 38/7 or 5 3/7 or 5.43 decimal
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
(12 + 2/3)/(2 + 1/3)
Put 2 + 1/3 over the common denominator 3. 2 + 1/3 = (3×2)/3 + 1/3:
(12 + 2/3)/((3×2)/3 + 1/3)
3×2 = 6:
(12 + 2/3)/(6/3 + 1/3)
6/3 + 1/3 = (6 + 1)/3:
(12 + 2/3)/((6 + 1)/3)
6 + 1 = 7:
(12 + 2/3)/(7/3)
Put 12 + 2/3 over the common denominator 3. 12 + 2/3 = (3×12)/3 + 2/3:
((3×12)/3 + 2/3)/(7/3)
3×12 = 36:
(36/3 + 2/3)/(7/3)
36/3 + 2/3 = (36 + 2)/3:
((36 + 2)/3)/(7/3)
36 + 2 = 38:
(38/3)/(7/3)
Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator, (38/3)/(7/3) = 38/3×3/7:
(38×3)/(3×7)
(38×3)/(3×7) = 3/3×38/7 = 38/7:
Answer: 38/7

Answer:
x = -2.5
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
We can remove the denominators by multiplying everything by it.
Solve:
Let's make one side equal to 0.
Solve by factoring, and then the zero product property.
Multiply 2 and -10. You get -20. Think of two number that multiply to -20, and add to 1. If we think about the standard form of a quadratic, 
, think two numbers that equal "ac" and add up to "b".
Using the zero product property, set each factor to 0 and solve for x.
- 2x + 5 = 0
2x = -5
x = -5/2 = -2.5 - x - 2 = 0
x = 2
The two answers are x = -2.5, and x = 2.
