What is simpler answer to 28 over 35

1 answer:

7 0

To find the simplest form of a fraction, you have to find the greatest common factor (GCF). To do so, list out the factors of the numerator (28) and the denominator (35) and find the biggest common number between the two numbers.

Factors of 28: 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28
Factors of 35: 1, 5, 7, 35

Out of those factors, we can see that 1 and 7 are the common factors, but 7 is the greatest which makes it our GCF.

Now we can divide the numerator and the denominator by the GCF to receive our simplest form.

28 ÷ 7 = 4

35 ÷ 7 = 5

Rewrite the fraction with the new numerator (4) and the new denominator (5).

The simplest form is: 4/5 or 0.8.

x = 16 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude divides the triangle into similar triangles. We can form the ratio between the hypotenuse and the short leg for two of the triangles. Those ratios will be a proportion:

10/6 = ((x-6) +6)/10

100/6 = x . . . . . multiply by 10 and simplify

x = 16 2/3

You should buy 576 grams of cereal. I believe this is right because 32g x 18=576. But you might want me to work it different or something.
