13/15 of her allowance was spent in total.

To solve this, you'd need to find the least common denominator (LCD) so that both fractions have the same number on the bottom. In this case, the first number that you could get with 5 and 3 was 15.

Next, you'd have to multiply the numerator by the same amount as the denominator, so that the fractions are proportionate. So, for 1/5, since we had to multiply 5 by 3 to get 15, we'd multiply 1 by 3 as well, giving us 3/15. Doing the same with 2/3, we'd get 10/15.

Then, you add the two fractions together (10/15 + 3/15 = 13/15).

Now, in any other case, you could probably simplify the fraction after you've solved the problem. If we got 12/15 instead of 13/15, then we could simplify that to 4/5, since both 12 and 15 are divisible by 3. But in this case, this is the simplest form of that fraction.

Hope this helped!!!

A regular octagon rotates 360° about its center. How many times does the image of the octagon coincide with the preimage during
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
This regular polygon, having eight sides and 45º angle in similar parts, when rotating 360º, will find a similar image and a similar angle of 45º, therefore dividing the angle of 360º by 45º will be the Number of coincidences<span> in image.

</span><span>Solving, thus, we have:

Answer: 2, 9, 14, 17, 19

Step-by-step explanation:

A box plot uses the values: minimum, maximum, median, first quartile and third quartile.

First sort the data from lowest to highest.  

2,8,9,11,14,15,17,19,20

Thus, the minimum, or Data Point 1 is 2.

Then find the median.

8,9,11,14,15,17,19

9,11,14,15,17

11,14,15

14

Thus, the median, or Data Point 3 is 14.

For the 1st and 3rd quartile, simply, ignoring the median, find the median of the first and second half of the data.

8,9,11

9

Thus, the first quartile, or Data Point 2 is 9.

15,17,19

17.

Thus, the third quartile, or Data Point 4 is 17.

The maximum of the data, or Data Point 5 is 19.
