Turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions:
-5 5/8 = - 45/8
-4 7/12 = - 55/12
Remember, when you divide by a fraction, you take its reciprocal and multiply it:
(-48/8) / (-55/12) = (-48/8) x (-12/55)
Simplify the fraction:
72/55
I think this is the answer.
First, let's start with the whole number.
Half of 5 is 2.5 or 2 1/2.
4/5 translated into a decimal is 0.8, so half of that would be 0.4.
0.4 translated into a fraction is 2/5.
Add 2 1/2 to 2/5.
I'll show you the long way and the easier way.
The long way is that you find a common denominator for both fractions.
A common denominator would be 10, because you would multiply 2 and 5 (the denominators).
So this would translate the problem into 2 5/10 (Remember that whatever you do to the bottom you have to do to the top) and 4/10.
If you add these together you get 2 9/10.
The easy ways is taking the decimals in the problem (2.5 and 0.8)
Half of 0.8 is 0.4 (As mentioned above).
2.5 + 0.4.
This equals 2.9.
Answer:
Oliver paid a total of $363.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount paid by Oliver on this dinner is given by the cost of their lunch (275) plus the tax (12%) plus the tip (20%). So in order to calculate this value we first need to know how much was paid in tax and the tip, these calculations are shown bellow:
tax = 275*12% = 275*(12/100) = 33
tip = 275*20% = 275*(20/100) = 55
So the total amount paid was:
total = 275 + 33 + 55 = $363
Oliver paid a total of $363.
Put ur equation in y = mx + b form, and m will be ur slope
y + 3x = 4.....subtract 3x from both sides
y = -3x + 4......so -3 is ur slope
-my/m-4
