Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
trapezium area
A=a+b/2(h)
Whole: A=8+10/2(6)
A=54 cm
Hole: 5+7/2(3)
a=18
54cm-18cm= 36
area of shaded region is 36cm.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a. use what's given in the question to write an equation
36x + 12y + 24e (using e as the variable for erasers)
b. 12 is the greatest common factor between the coefficients/ constant so factor it out
12 (3x + y + 2e)
12 kits
c. use the factored expression to see how many of each item
3x - 3 pencils
y - 1 crayon
2e - 2 erasers
Hi there!
To solve this problem, we need to simplify.
2/3x = 12
To isolate x, we should multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 2/3 to make x equal to a value:
Reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2
x = 12 * 3/2
x = 18
Hope this helps!
Answer: 2/5
Step-by-step explanation: Using the place value chart, we can see that the decimal 0.4 is four tenths, so we can write 0.4 as the fraction 4/10.
Notice however that 4/10 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 4 and 10 which is 2.
So if we divide the numerator and the denominator by 2, we get the equivalent fraction 2/5.
Therefore, 0.4 can be written as the fraction 2/5 which is in lowest terms.
