Base = 2 x height (b = 2h)
Area = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 2h x h = h x h = h^2

How can I solve ¾ - (-5/12)?

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

$1 \frac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3}{4}+ \frac{5}{12} =?\\$

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

$(\frac{3}{4}$ × $\frac{3}{3} )$ + $(\frac{5}{12}$ × $\frac{1}{1})=?$

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

$\frac{9}{12} + \frac{5}{12}$

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.

$\frac{9+5}{12} = \frac{14}{12}$

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 14 and 12 using

GCF(14,12) = 2

14÷2 / 12÷2 =7/6

The fraction

7/6

is the same as

7÷6

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 7 ÷ 6 = 1R1, so

7/6= $1 \frac{1}{6}$

Therefore:

3/4 − (−5/12) = $1 \frac{1}{6}$

Solution by Formulas

Apply the fractions formula for subtraction, to

3/4 − (−5/12)

and solve

(3×12) − (−5×4) 4×12

=3/6− (−20/48)

=56/48

Reduce by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor GCF( 56,48) = 8

56÷8 / 48÷8 =7/6

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 7 ÷ 6 = 1R1, so

7/6= $1 \frac{1}{6}$

Therefore:

3/4 − (-5/12) = $1 \frac{1}{6}$

A standard deck of playing cards has 52 cards: 13 spades, 13 clubs, 13 hearts, and 13 diamonds. What is the probability of drawi

cestrela7 [59]

13/ 52 = 1/4 chances.

There are 13 spades and 52 cards. You divide the spades and cards in the deck to find your chances of drawing one.

You have a 25% chance of getting a spade.

Now you put it back. Since you put it back, you still have the same number of cards and the same number of spades. So when you divide 13/52 again, the numbers are still the same. 1/4. 25% chance.

So, you still have a 25% chance the second time around.
