1. So first of all we have to divide the 3 fractions into decimals to get a decimal to compare. So 5/6 is the same as 5 divided by 6 which is .83 bar and so on...
5/6= .83 bar
1/4= .25
2/3= .66 bar
So 5/6 and 2/3 are closer to one.
2. The two shortest pieces are 2/3 and 1/4 so you se 1/4 + 2/3. Let’s get a common denominator for these fractions. The common denominator is 12. So multiply 1/4 • 3 to get 3/12 and multiply 2/3 by • 4 to get 8/12. Add them together and you get 11/12. So he would need 1/12 more cable or 0.083 bar.
3. Now we have to find a common denominator for all of them. The common denominator is 12 again. Multiply 5/6•2 and then you get 10/12, then add 10/12 +2/12(from 1/4) and then you get leftover with 9/12 or 3/4 more wire.
The answer is 30. you can find the unit rate but the calculator was invented a long time ago so i used that ;)
Answer:
{F, O, U, R} in the word 'FOUR'
When comparing decimals, start in the tenths place. The decimal with the biggest value there is greater. If they are the same, move to the hundredths place and compare these values. If the values are still the same keep moving to the right until you find one that is greater or until you find that they are equal.
Let the number = x
It would be: 9x + 6 = 456
9x = 456 - 6
9x = 450
x = 450 / 9
x = 50
In short, Your Answer would be 50
Hope this helps!
