Answer:

\frac{3}{6}+\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we have to sum each pair of cable and see which one results in 20/24.

\frac{3}{6}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{12+6}{24}=\frac{18}{24}=\frac{3}{4}

\frac{3}{6}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{9+6}{18}=\frac{15}{18}=\frac{5}{6}

\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{3+4}{12}=\frac{7}{12}

Now, if we simply 20/24, we have:

\frac{20}{24}=\frac{10}{12}=\frac{5}{6}

As you can see, the answer is the second sum above, because they have the same basic fraction.

Therefore, the answer is

\frac{3}{6}+\frac{1}{3}

Answer:

3/6 + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

20/24 can be devided top and bottom by 4 which would equal 5/6, if you add 3/6 + 1/3 also equals 5/6.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

R = rows

C = columns

The chairs will be arranged in a way such that R * C \geq 70

We know that R \leq 20

70 / 20 = 3.5; however, you can't have half of a chair.

So find all the factors of 70 which don't exceed 20.

1, 70

2, 35

<h2>5, 14</h2><h2>7, 10</h2><h2></h2><h2>There are four ways that Brooke can set up the chairs:</h2><h2>5 rows of 14</h2><h2>7 rows of 10</h2><h2>10 rows of 7</h2><h2>14 rows of 5</h2>
