3 0

<span> The real question you need to solve is "Is 1/4 greater than, equal, or less than 15/100?" At first glance it's hard to determine how they relate to each other. So first make both fractions use the same denominator. The easiest way to do this is multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the denominator of the other fraction. So 1/4 * 100/100 = 100/400 and 15/100 * 4/4 = 60/400 Now ask yourself "Is 100/400 greater than, equal, or less than 60/400?" and the answer is pretty obvious. 100/400 > 60/400. So the answer is ">".</span>

(3x + 5)° + (10x - 7)° = 180°

13x + (-2) = 180

13x = 180 + 2

13x = 182

x = 14

∠QRT = 3 * 14 + 5 = 42 + 5 = 47°

∠TRS = 10 * 14 - 7 = 140 - 7 = 133°
