If you divide 9/2 you receive 4.5. Tho when you divide 1/3 you get .33333 (repeated), so now you know that both the fractions do not correlate. Now the 'multiples' of 1/3 are 2/ 6, 3/9, 4/12, 5/15, 6/18, 7/21 and so on. If you do the 'multiples' of 2/9 you get 4/18, 6/27. The common factors are 4/18 and 6/18. So know you know that Sandy is using 2/18 (or 1/9) cups more of sugar.

I think the wording of the question is off, since 2/9 is less than 1/3. I think the question meant to say "she increases it by 2/9" thus making this an addition problem.

1/3+2/9
Dind the lcm of 3 and 9 and transform the fractions appropriately:
3/9+2/9
5/9

So Sandy used 5/9 cups of brown sugar.

El Sr negron tiene que redactar una serie de cartas en su oficina. A Lourdes le toma 6 horas pasar todas las cartas. A su compañera rosabel, le toma 9 horas en realizar la misma tarea. Si ambas trabajan juntas para hacer todo el trabajo d ela oficina,

a. Cuánto tiempo le tomará a ambas realizar el trabajo?

Answer:

3.6 horas

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea el número total de horas que ambos trabajaron = T

Deje que la cantidad total de letras por las que pasaron = 1

De la pregunta, se nos dice:

Lourdes necesitó 6 horas para revisar las cartas.

Esto significa que, cada 1 hora, Lourdes revisaba 1/6 de las letras

Rosabel tardó 9 horas en leer las letras.

Esto significa que, cada 1 hora, Rosabel revisó 1/9 de las letras

Por lo tanto,

(1/6 × 1) T + (1/9 × 1) T = 1

(1/6 + 1/9) T = 1

(3 + 2/18) T = 1

(18/5) T = 1

5T / 18 = 1

Cruz multiplicar

5T = 18

T = 18/5

T = 3.6 horas

Por lo tanto, les tomó a ambas 3.6 horas hacer el trabajo.
