Answer:

1\frac{1}{8} pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the concert promoter started with 2 \frac{3}{4} pages of ads but had to cancel 1 \frac{5}{8}, subtracting the cancelled amount from the original amount will give the amount of advertising space the promoter is now actually using:

 2 \frac{3}{4}  = 2 \frac{6}{8}

- <u>1 \frac{5}{8}</u>      - <u>1 \frac{5}{8}</u>

     1\frac{1}{8} pages

In order to subtract fractions, you need to have like denominators, so you need to convert \frac{3}{4} into an equivalent fraction with a denominator of '8'.  Since 4 x 2 = 8, then you also need to multiply the numerator by the same factor: 3 x 2 = 6.

A park has a length to width ratio of 7:4 and the perimeter of the park is 880 meters. What are the length and width of the park
Schach [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of length to width = 7 : 4

length = 7x

width = 4x

7x + 4x = 11x

length = 880

880 + 4x = 11x

880 = 11x - 4x

880 = 7x

\frac{880}{7}  = x

125.71 = x

width = 4x

= 4(125.71)

= 502.85

I believe that is the only possible value for x.
