Because 1/2 of 6 =1/3 and 1/2×1/3=1/6

The number 3 can be expressed as a fraction 3/1. If we multiply the fraction 1/6 by 3/1 we get:
1/6 x 3/1 = (1 x 3)/(6 x 1)
(1 x 3)/(6 x 1) = 3/6
Now just simplify the fraction:
3/6 = 1/2

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 1/4x – 12?
arlik [135]
To find the inverse all you do is swap your x and y then solve it through. for this one you gotta take f(x) and make it y

y = 1/4x - 12

then swap

x = 1/4y - 12

then solve it through

x - 12 = 1/4y

divide by (1/4)

and (x - 12)4 = y should be your answer

Write the sum of the numbers as the product of their gcf and another sum Problem: 30+54
omeli [17]
The correct answer here is that the sum has to be 84. This is due to the fact that 30 + 54 is 84, and the greatest common factor is 6 because the factors of 30 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 , 10, 15, and 54's Factors: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, and 54, so from this we can see that 6 is the great common factor.
