Hi there!
To solve this problem, we need to find the total amount of paint used by adding the two fractions.
First, we need to find the common denominators below adding.
1/2 = 2/4
1/4 = 1/4
The common denominator is 4.
Now, we add the mixed numbers together:
3 2/4 + 2 1/4 = 5 3/4
Since 5 3/4 can't be simplified, the answer is:
5 3/4 liters of paint
Hope this helps!
Answer: D: -2
explanation:
1. divide fractions inside brackets by multiplying by the reciprocal
1/4 • 4/7
= 4/28
2. multiply 4/28 by 7/5
= 28/140 which can be reduced to 1/5
3. multiply by -10
= 1/5 • -10
= -2
Answer:
t
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, but your answer will be a decimal, but make sure you check your work and one way you can check your work is by first combing like terms, and then solve it as it is an equation.
