<span>You can reduce a fraction by finding a common multiple. 6 and 12 are both divisible by 2 because they are both even numbers. You can start there. Always remember, anything you do to the top (numerator) you must do to the bottom (denominator). The rules are different for adding and subtracting, so don't worry about that. Divide the 6 by 2 to get 6/2=3 and divide 12 by 2 to get 12/2=6. You now have a new fraction 3/6. Since 3 is odd, you can't divide by 2 anymore. can you divide by 3? Yes. 3/3=1 and 6/3=2 so your new fraction is 1/2. Hope this is what you were looking for.</span>

You can simplify 6/12 by finding the highest factor that can go into 6 and 12 which is 6 and then you divide 6/12 by 6 which is 1/2 so this is one way simplifying 6/12 hope this helped!:)

Mandarinka [93]

slope intercept form is y=mx+b

So slope intercept form is The office manager of a small office ordered 140 packs of printer paper based on average daily use, she knows that the paper will last about 80 days

(A) Lets make a table

X axis represents the Number of days paper used

y axis represents the packs of printer paper used

x            y

days      packs of printer paper used

0            0               (0 days , 0 packs used)

80          140           (in 80 days , 140 packs paper used)

The graph is attached below

(B) To find Equation of a line we use points (0,0)  and (80,140)

slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{140-0}{80-0} = \frac{7}{4}

y intecept is (0,0)

so b= 4

Slope intercept form of a line i y=mx + b

m is the slope and b is the y intercept

So slope intercept form of line becomes

y= \frac{7}{4} x

Standard form is Ax + By =C

y= \frac{7}{4} x

Multiply both sides by 4

4y = 7x

Now subtract 7x on both sides

-7x + 4y =0 is the standard form

(c) To find packs of printer paper  the manager expect to have after 30 days, Plug in 30 for x  and find out y

y= \frac{7}{4} x

y= \frac{7}{4}(30)= 52.5

Total 140 packs of printer paper

52.5 packs of paper used

Packs of paper remaining after 30 days = 140- 52.5= 87.5
