Express each ratio as a fraction in simplest form.2 yards to 45 feet First, let's convert feet to yard to get the answer => 2 yard = x yard => 1 foot = 0.333333 yard. => 0.333333 yard * 45 = 15 yards, thus the answer is <span>=> 2/15</span>
The inequality is still true! If you add a number, say 5 to both sides of the following inequality, does anything change?
3 < 6
3 + 5 < 6 + 5
8 < 11
The inequality is still true. We know the statement holds for subtracting the same number because, in a way, addition and subtraction are pretty much the same operation. If I subtract 5 from both sides, I can think of it like "I add negative 5 to both sides" or something along those lines. It's kind of backwards thinking.
