When you simpilfy a fraction you make it smaller. When you divide a number you make it smaller.
Ex: 5 /5 1
_ = _
10 /5 2
Answer:
13 , 17 and 25 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the first side be x cm.
Then the second is x+4 and the third is 2x-1 cm long.
As the perimeter = 55 cm we have the equation:
x + x + 4 + 2x - 1 = 55
4x + 3 = 55
4x = 52
x = 13 cm.
Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3/4(4x+16)=7
2x+(3x12)=7--->distributive property
2x+3x+12=7
5x+12=7--->addition property
5x=-5--->subtraction peroperty
x= -1---?division property
Answer:
1 hour = 7/18 of the distance between two ports
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
In 3/7 hours distance traveled is 1/6
For finding distance in one hour, divide both sides by 7/3 so that 3/7 would be cancelled out:
3/7 * 7/3 hours = 1/6 * 7/3 distance
By simplifying:
1 hour = 7/18 of the distance between two ports
This means that in one hour 7/18 of the distance is covered between two ports.
i hope it will help you!
