How do you use equivalent fractions to compare the fractions in each pair
Alenkasestr [34]
Firstly you need to to reduce to a common denominator by multiplYing the whole fraction. This way you have to multiply 4/5 by 2 (both numerator and denominator). so 4/5 = 8/10. And now you have 8/10 and 9/10. You compare only numerators. This way you have 8/10 <9/10. Same goes for 2/3 and 5/8. Only here you need to multiply both fractions. The common denominator here is 24. So you have to multiply 2/3 by 8 and 5/8 by 3. You now have to compare 16/24 and 15/24. 16/24>15/24.

A truck driver can travel 560 miles on 28 gallons of gas. How far can he travel on 35 gallons of gas?
Shtirlitz [24]
560 / 28 = 20....so the driver travels 20 miles per gallon

on 35 gallons......35 * 20 = 700 miles <==

or u can also do it this way...

560/28 = x / 35....560 miles to 28 gal = x miles to 35 gal
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(28)(x) = (560)(35)
28x = 19600
x = 19600/28
x = 700 miles <==

so u can either do it by finding the unit rate or by making a proportion. either way will result in the same answer.

The measure of an angle is twenty-nine times the measure of the supplementary angle. what are the measures of both angles?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Let's say x is the measure of the first angle and y is measure of the supplement of x. We know that supplementary angles add up to 180°, so x + y=180. We also know that x = 29y. Therefore, 29y+y=180. It follows that y = 6, therefore, the first angle is 174° and the second angle is 6°.
