<h3>Answer: LCM = 132</h3>

===================================================

Work Shown:

LCM = least common denominator

List out the prime factorization of each denominator

  • 6 = 2*3
  • 11 = 1*11
  • 12 = 2*2*3

So we have the list of primes 2,3, and 11 that help form the denominators when we multiply some of them together.

The prime 2 shows up at most twice, so 2*2 = 4 is a factor of the LCM

The prime 3 shows up at most one time, meaning 3 is also a factor

The prime 11 shows up at most one time, so 11 is another factor

Multiply these factors to get 4*3*11 = 12*11 = 132

The LCM is 132

---------------------

Another Approach:

Focus on 1/6 and 10/11 for now. The LCM is 66 because 6*11 = 66. We simply multiply the denominators together. Then we divide over the GCF 1 to get 66/1 = 66.

The LCM of 1/6 and 10/11 is 66

The fractions 1/6 and 10/11 are equivalent to 11/66 and 60/66 respectively

The original list of fractions updates to 11/66, 60/66, 5/12

We've gone from 3 different denominators to now 2 different denominators.

Repeat the steps of multiplying the denominators and dividing by the GCF

66*12 = 792

792/(gcf of 66 and 12) = 792/6 = 132

So the LCM of all the fractions is 132.

Simplify -2 1/9 - (-4 1/9)
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest thing is to convert it to an improper fraction.

-2 1/9 turns into -19/9. -4 1/9 turns into -37/9.

-19/9 - (-37/9) here you would add because you are subtracting a negative number.

-19/9 + 37/9 change it to positive and then add.

-19+37=18

it was 18/9. that simplified is 2.

I need some help. Thanks! ​

Simplified to its simplest form, your answer would be 20%. Since there are 30 students in total, and 6 of them are male sophomores, you would have 6/30. This can be simplified down to 2/10 and even further to 1/5. In decimals, this becomes 0.2, which as a percent becomes 20%.
