What is 10/9 closer to 1, 1/2

Mathematics

Serga [27]3 years ago

Answer:

It is closer to 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, 10/9 is the same thing as 1 1/9.

Draw a number line:

                                  1/2                               1

--|------|------|------|-----|---|---|------|------|------|-----|-----

0/9  1/9   2/9  3/9  4/9  5/9  6/9  7/9  8/9  9/9

Halfway between 4/9 and 5/9 is the same as 1/2 and 9/9 is the same as 1.

You can see that 1/9 is way closer to 1/2 than 1.

So, 10/9 is closer to 1/2.

(There are other ways to solve this, but this way is easiest for me!)

Sum of two number is 27. One number is 3 more than the other number
vekshin1
X + y = 27

y = x + 3

x + (x+ 3) = 27

2x + 3 = 27
2x + 3 (-3) = 27 (-3)
2x/2 = 24/2
x = 12

x + 3 = y
12 + 3 = y
y = 15

x = 12, y = 15

hope this helps
