\frac{3}{8} =  \frac{9}{24} 
 
\frac{1}{6} = \frac{4}{24}

\frac{9}{24} +  \frac{4}{24} =  \frac{13}{24}

\frac{24}{24} -  \frac{13}{24} =  \frac{11}{24}

This is very simple if you know the process.

First of all, you must convert 3/8 and 1/6 into similar denominators. You can do this by doing 3x6 and 8x6 for the first fraction and 1x8 and 6x8 for the second fraction.

Once you have done this, you get 18/48 on clothes and 8/48 on entertainment.

18/48 + 8/48 = 26/48 and so 48 - 26 = 22 so 22/48 was spent on other items.
22/48 simplified is equal to 11/24 and since that cannot be simplified anymore, your answer is 11/24 of her allowance was spent on other items.

 I hope that helps! :D

Find the measures of two angles, one positive and one negative, that are coterminal with <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfr
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

a. 11/5 pi; -9/5 pi

Step-by-step explanation:

Coterminal angles are those which have a common terminal side. For example 30° is coterminal with −330° and 390° (see figure).

From the example we can see that the following expressions must be fulfilled:

positive angle - reference angle = 360°

reference angle - negative angle = 360°

where positive angle is 390°, reference angle is 30° and negative angle is -330°. In this problem reference angle is pi/5. Also, we have to change 360° for its equivalent in radians, i. e., 2 pi. So,

positive angle - pi/5 = 2 pi

positive angle = 2 pi + pi/5

positive angle = 11/5 pi

pi/5 - negative angle = 2 pi

negative angle = pi/5 - 2 pi

negative angle = -9/5 pi

Please help I really don’t know what to do
just olya [345]

Answer:

The answer is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

2 * 2 * 2 = 8

8 * 0.5 = 4

4 - 4 = 0

0 / 2 = 0

Make sure the 0.5 is actually 0.5, because it is hard to tell in that expression. if anything, anything, the steps are the same and all you would need to do is the change the numbers.

Hope this helps :)
