Answer:

Yes, they are correct. Hernando divided 6 by 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Hernando ate 2/8 of a pizza for dinner.

Let the pizza be x. Then:

Hernando ate \dfrac{2}{8} \ \ o f  \ \ x

Then he gave the rest of the pizza to his friends

Hernando now carried out the  following calculations to support his activities;

\dfrac{6}{8} \div 6= \dfrac{6 \div 6}{8}= \dfrac{1}{8}

\dfrac{6}{8} \times \dfrac{1}{6}= \dfrac{6 \div 6}{8}= \dfrac{1}{8}

From the above calculation; we will see that Hernando divided 6 by 6 in both cases to get \dfrac{1}{8}.

Thus, the correct answer is:

Yes, they are correct. Hernando divided 6 by 6.

How do you do this ?
jeka57 [31]

Answer: 3(x^2 + 4)/(x - 5)(x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify, begin with 3x^2 + 12 by dividing by 3 first: 3(x^2 + 4)

x^2 - x - 20 can be simplified into (x - 5) (x + 4). To find these terms, you have to figure out what two numbers multiply together to equal -20 but also add to -1.
