2/9 is less than 2/5 because since the denominator is larger, the pieces are smaller. (Numerator)

Answer: D. 2/9 - the reason I knew this was smaller was because the numerator(number in the top part of the fraction) stayed the same, but the denominator increased meaning we are dividing the same amount by a larger number of divisions. This means that it will be a smaller fraction.  


Why do none of the other answer choices fit? Well, either the numerator increased or both the numerator and denominator increased by a margin that made the final fraction larger than the original 2/5.

Any questions?

Which of the following describes the sum in terms of p and q?(1 point)
snow_tiger [21]

The description of the summation expression given as p + (-q) is the sum, p + (-q), is the number located a distance, |p|, from , q, in the negative direction.

<h3>How to describe the sum in terms of p and q?</h3>

The summation expression is given as:

p + (-q)

In the above summation expression, we assume that:

p ⇒ Positive number

- q ⇒ Negative number

Having said that:

The expression -q would go in the negative direction if plotted on a number line

This means that the description of the summation expression given as p + (-q) is the sum, p + (-q), is the number located a distance, |p|, from , q, in the negative direction.

Hence, the description of the summation expression given as p + (-q) is the sum, p + (-q), is the number located a distance, |p|, from , q, in the negative direction.

Tony buys a washing machine
Lorico [155]

Step-by-step explanation:

£480 = 120% (after adding the 20% VAT).

we want to know how much 100% is.

he do we get from 120% to 100% ?

first the formal long way

£480 = 120%

1% = 120%/120 = 480/120 = £4

100% = 1% × 100 = 4×100 = £400

once you understand this mechanism, you can apply the direct shortcut :

£480 / 1.2 = £400

as a multiplication with 100/120 is the same as a division by 120/100, which is 1.2.

and what we did at the beginning in long form was nothing else than

£480 × 100/120 = 480 × 10/12 = 480 × 5/6 = £400
