How can you determine whether a fraction is larger or smaller than 1/2?

1 answer:

7 0

You can cross multiply. Which means that you multiply the denominator of the first fraction to the numerator of the 2nd fraction.Whichever has the largest number when you multiply will be the largest fractions.

EX: 1/4 and 1/2 you multiply the 4 to the 1 of the second fraction which will total out to 4. Then the numerator of the first fraction which is 1 time the denominator of the second fraction which is 2. Since the bigger number is over the fraction 1/4 that means 1/4 is larger than 1/2.

25. Which step can you use to solve the equation 3x = -12?

sergey [27]

You need to isolate the variable (x) by performing the opposite operation.

Since 3 is multiplied by x, the opposite would be dividing by 3. What you do on one side you do on the other side, so you would need to divide -12 by 3 as well.

In your case, the answer is B
