Steps in multiplying fractions. Remember: finding common denominator is not necessary in multiplying fractions. 
Common denominators are only needed in adding and subtracting fractions.

14/15 * 5/2 

Step 1. Multiply the numerators.
14 * 5 = 70
Step 2. Multiply the denominators
15 * 2 = 30
Step 3. Simplify the fraction.
70/30 = 2 10/30 = 2 1/3      

*the fraction 10/30 can still be simplified by dividing both numbers by 10. Hence, 1/3.

Steps in Dividing fractions.

24/60 ÷ 8/15

Step 1. Get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction. Reciprocal means the reverse of the fraction. Simply swap the places of the numbers.

Reciprocal of 8/15 is 15/8.

Step 2. Multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction. Follow steps in multiplying fractions.

24/60 * 15/8 = (24*15) / (60*8) = 360/480

Step 3. Simplify the fraction.
360/480 = 9 / 12 = 3/4

360 ÷ 40 =   9 ;   9 ÷ 3 = 3
480 ÷ 40 = 12 ; 12 ÷ 3 = 4

Use pi=3<br> Calculate the area of a circle with a diameter of 10cm
GalinKa [24]
Area of a circle is 75 cm².

Area of a circle is computed by multiplying pi to the square of the radius.

A = πr²

diameter = 10 cm
radius = d/2 = 10/2 = 5 cm
pi = 3

A = 3(5cm²)
A = 3(25cm²)
A = 75 cm²

Is 16/3 rational or irrational?
Rudik [331]
16/3 is rational simply because it is a fraction made up of whole numbers.

Irrational numbers cannot be expressed as fractions made up of whole numbers.

Evelyn's made a cake in the shape of a circus tent the cake consisted of a cylinder and a cone .The height of the cone is half t
Lera25 [3.4K]
The volume of the cake is 1470 in³. 
volume of a cylinder = πr² x height
(Think about how a cylinder is basically a bunch of circles stacked on top of each other. To find the volume, first you need the area of the circle (πr², then you multiply by how many circles you are stacking on top of each other (height)) 

we know the diameter of the cylinder is 12 in. and the radius is half of the diameter. 
half of 12 is 6, therefore the radius is 6 in. or r = 6 
Assuming pi is 3.14, solve for the height of the cylinder
1470 = (3.14)(6²)(height)
1470 = 3.14 x 36 x height
1470 = 113.04 x height
height ≈ 13 in

Now that we know the height of the cylinder is about 13 in., we know the height of the cone, because the problem says that the height of the cone is half the height of the cylinder. 
half of 13 is 6.5, therefore the height of the cone is 6.5 
the radius of the cone is the same as that of the cylinder, 6 in. 

volume of a cone = πr² × (height ÷ 3)

volume of the cone = (3.14)(6²)(6.5 ÷ 3)
volume of the cone = (3.14)(36)(2.16666)
volume of the cone = 244.92 in³

Now all that's left to find the volume of the whole cake is to add the volume of the cylinder to the volume of the cone. 

1470 + 244.92 = 1714.92 in³
