\bf \cfrac{4a}{3}-\cfrac{b}{4}=6
\qquad \qquad 
\cfrac{5a}{6}+b=13
\\\\\\
\textit{let us remove the denominators off those folks}\\
\textit{by multiplying the first one by 12, both sides}\\
\textit{and the second one by 6, both sides, thus}
\\\\\\
12\left( \cfrac{4a}{3}-\cfrac{b}{4} \right)=12(6)\implies 16a-4b=72
\\\\\\
6\left( \cfrac{5a}{6}+b \right)=6(13)\implies 5a+6b=78

\bf  \textit{now, let's do the elimination}
\\\\

\begin{array}{llll}
16a-4b=72&\boxed{\times 3}\implies &48a-\underline{12b}=216\\\\
5a+6b=78&\boxed{\times 2}\implies &10a+\underline{12b}=156\\
&&--------\\
&&58a+0\quad=372
\end{array}

solve for "a", once you get "a", plug it back into either equation to get "b"

If the perimeter is 86 inches, what is the length of the shortest sides
svet-max [94.6K]

Since perimeter means adding all 4 sides, you divide 86 divided by 4 equals = 21.5. Then do 21.5 + 21.5 which equals 43. And 43 + 43 = 86. So two sides are 21.5, and the other two sides are 43. So 21.5 <  43. 21.5 is the shortest sides. Hope this Helps!

14.2 × 3.14 = 44.588

44.588 × 2 = 89.176

89.176 ≈ 90

C = 90
