Let's say the smaller number is x, and the bigger number is x + 16. the sum of them would be x + x + 16 = 38. subtract 16 from both sides and combine like terms to get 2x = 22. divide both sides to get x = 11. the smaller number (x) is 11, and the bigger number (x+16) is 27.

Write down a fraction that lies halfway between 1/3 and 1/2
lorasvet [3.4K]
You need to find a common denominator. I would use 6 first.

1/3 is equivalent to 2/6. 1/2 is equivalent to 3/6. It is still difficult to find the median between the two so I would try 12 as a common denominator.

1/3 is equivalent to 4/12, and 1/2 is equivalent to 6/12. Therefore, the halfway point would be:

5/12
