If you use the function on a TI 36X that looks like two arrows pointing away from each other, it tells you that 1.84=46 over 25, or 46/25.

1.84 = 184 / 100 Divide top and bottom by 2

92 / 50 Divide top and bottom by 2

46 / 25

So either 184/100 or 92/50 or 46/25 is equivalent to 1.84

(a) $[\frac{9}{2.6} - \frac{2.5^{2} }{2.5} ]^{2}$

Answer:

$[\frac{9}{2.6} - \frac{2.5^{2} }{2.5} ]^{2}$

= $[\frac{9}{2.6} - \frac{2.5*2.5 }{2.5} ]^{2}$

= $[\frac{9}{2.6} - \frac{2.5}{1} ]^{2}$

*canceling 2.5 in numerator and denominator*

$= [\frac{9-(2.5)(2.6)}{2.6} ]^2\\*Using L.C.M of 2.6 and 1 which comes out to be '2.6'= [\frac{9-(6.5)}{2.6} ]^2\\= [\frac{2.5}{2.6} ]^2\\*multiplying and dividing by '10'= [\frac{2.5*10}{2.6*10} ]^2\\= [\frac{25}{26} ]^2\\= \frac{25^2}{26^2}\\= \frac{625}{676}\\= 0.925$

Least Common Multiplier(LCM)

The least or smallest common multiple of any two or more given natural numbers are termed as LCM. For example, LCM of 10, 15, and 20 is 60.

(b) $[[\frac{3x^{a}y^{b}} {-3x^{a} y^{b} } ]^{3} ] ^{2}$

Answer:

$[[\frac{3x^{a}y^{b}} {-3x^{a} y^{b} } ]^{3}] ^{2}\\$

*using $[x^{a}]^b = x^{ab}$ *

$= [\frac{3x^{3a}y^{3b}} {-3x^{3a} y^{3b} }] ^{2}$

*Again, using $[x^{a}]^b = x^{ab}$ *

$= \frac{3x^{2*3a}y^{2*3b}} {-3x^{2*3a} y^{2*3b} } \\= (-1)\frac{3x^{6a}y^{6b}} {3x^{6a} y^{6b} }\\[\tex]*taking -1 common, denominator and numerator are equal*[tex]= -(1)\frac{1}{1}\\= -1$
