Answer:

  -25            

 ——— = -2.08333

    12  

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

           7

Simplify   —

           4

Equation at the end of step  1  :

       1           7

 (0 -  —) +  (0 -  —)

       3           4

Step  2  :

           1

Simplify   —

           3

Equation at the end of step  2  :

       1     -7

 (0 -  —) +  ——

       3     4

Step  3  :

Calculating the Least Common Multiple :

3.1    Find the Least Common Multiple

     The left denominator is :       3

     The right denominator is :       4

       Number of times each prime factor

       appears in the factorization of:

Prime

Factor   Left

Denominator   Right

Denominator   L.C.M = Max

{Left,Right}

3 1 0 1

2 0 2 2

Product of all

Prime Factors  3 4 12

     Least Common Multiple:

     12

Calculating Multipliers :

3.2    Calculate multipliers for the two fractions

   Denote the Least Common Multiple by  L.C.M

   Denote the Left Multiplier by  Left_M

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  Right_M

   Denote the Left Deniminator by  L_Deno

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  R_Deno

  Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 4

  Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 3

Making Equivalent Fractions :

3.3      Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions

Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.

For example :  1/2   and  2/4  are equivalent,  y/(y+1)2   and  (y2+y)/(y+1)3  are equivalent as well.

To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.

  L. Mult. • L. Num.      -1 • 4

  ——————————————————  =   ——————

        L.C.M               12  

  R. Mult. • R. Num.      -7 • 3

  ——————————————————  =   ——————

        L.C.M               12  

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

3.4       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

-1 • 4 + -7 • 3     -25

———————————————  =  ———

      12            12

Final result :

 -25            

 ——— = -2.08333

 12

If 8 cakes cost $62.40, how much would 3 cakes cost?
Ilya [14]

Answer:

<h2><em><u>$23.40 </u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Given,</u></em>

Cost price of 8 cakes = $62.40

<em><u>So,</u></em>

Cost price of 1 cake = $ \frac{62.40}{8}

<em><u>Therefore,</u></em>

Cost price of 3 cakes

= $(\frac{62.40}{8} × 3)

  • <em>[On dividing 62.40 by 8]</em>

= $(7.80 × 3)

  • <em>[On multiplying]</em>

= $23.40

<em><u>Hence,</u></em>

<em><u>The required cost of 3 cakes is $23.40 (Ans)</u></em>

Write an expression that is equivalent to three over four (5z+ 16). WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Alik [6]

Answer:

15 over fourz +12

Using the distributive property, 3/4 • 5z equals 15/4z, which can't be simplified. Then 3/4 of 16 is 12. If you divide 16 by 4 (the denominator) and then multiply by 3 (the numerator) that yields your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

literally just got asked this question (if that makes sense lol)

so B is your answer
