Hi There!

What is 32/48 in SIMPLEST form?

32÷16=2
48÷16=3

So the answer is 2/3

You have to find the largest number that you can divide both numbers by to make the fraction as small as possible. So,
32/16=2
48/16=3
Therefore, 32/48 would be 2/3 simplified because 2/3 can not be reduced anymore by dividing both numbers by the same number (:

There are 130 m&m's in a bag. there are half as many green as red. the number of blue is equal to the number of red and gree

AleksandrR [38]

Let x = red
Let 0.5x = green
Let (x) + (0.5x) = 1.5x = blue
Let 0.5(1.5x) = 0.75x = yellow
Let 0.75x + 4 = brown

$(x) + (0.5x) + (1.5x) + (0.75x) + (0.75 + 4) = 130$
$x + 0.5x+ 1.5x + 0.75x + 0.75 + 4 = 130$
$4.5x + 4 = 130$
$4.5x = 126$
$x = 28$

Use this value to calculate the other required numbers.
red = 28
green = 0.5x = 0.5(28) = 14
blue = 1.5x = 1.5(28) = 42
yellow = 0.75x = 0.75(28) = 21
brown = 0.75x + 4 = 0.75(28) + 4 = 25
