Mathematics
1 answer:
mojhsa [17]3 years ago
4 0

now, let's take a peek at the denominators, we have 3 and 8 and 12, we can get an LCD of 24 from that.

Let's multiply both sides by the LCD of 24, to do away with the denominators.

so, let's recall that a whole is "1", namely 500/500 = 1 = whole, or 5/5 = 1 = whole or 24/24 = 1 = whole.  So the whole class will yield a fraction of 1/1 or just 1.

\bf ~\hspace{7em}\stackrel{\textit{basketball}}{\cfrac{1}{3}}+\stackrel{\textit{soccer}}{\cfrac{1}{8}}+\stackrel{\textit{football}}{\cfrac{5}{12}}+\stackrel{\textit{baseball}}{x}~=~\stackrel{\textit{whole}}{1} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{24}}{24\left(\cfrac{1}{3}+\cfrac{1}{8}+\cfrac{5}{12}+x \right)=24(1)}\implies (8)1+(3)1+(2)5+(24)x=24 \\\\\\ 8+3+10+24x=24\implies 21+24x=24\implies 24x=3 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{3}{24}\implies x=\cfrac{1}{8}
