We need to make them all equivalent, so when all denominators are equal, we can see. 1/2 is 50/100, 3/5 is 60/100, and 99/100 stays the same.
The biggest is 99/100.
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 4y = 23 and x + y = 8
Multiply the second equation by 4
4x + 4y = 32
Add this to the first equation
7x - 4y = 23
4x + 4y = 32

11x = 55
Divide each side by 11
11x/11 = 55/11
x = 5
Answer:
The price of the computer is $1,152
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price of the computer be $x
The first boy boy had 7/8 of this amount, the amount he has is thus 7/8 × $x = 7x/8
The second boy had 5/6 of what the first boy had. The amount of money he has is thus 5/6 × 7x/8 = 35x/48
Now, the addition of what they have is $696 more than what they need to pay. This amount is x+ 696
Mathematically, this can be represented as;
7x/8 + 35x/48 = x + 696
(42x + 35x)/48 = (x + 696)
77x/48 = (x + 696)
77x = 48(x + 696)
77x = 48x + 33408
77x - 48x = 33408
29x = 33, 408
x = 33,408/29
x = $1,152
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
i assume x+y=6(1/2)=\frac{13}{2}
21:30 and 35: and 50 this is because 7 times 3 is 21, 10 times 3 is 30, and 7 times 5 is 35, and lastly 10 times 5 is 50
