2/4 is the larger fraction. Think of a candy bar that is cut into 4 equal pieces. Now think of the same sized candy bar cut into 6 pieces. The candy bar that has been cut into sixths has more pieces but they are smaller pieces that the candy bar cut into fourths.
**When comparing fractions, if the numerators are the same (like they are in this problem) look at the denominators. Whichever fraction has the greater number is actually going to be the smaller fraction (more pieces, but smaller pieces). If the denominators are the same, then the fraction that has the greater number in the numerator will be the larger fraction (more same-sized pieces than the other fraction)
Hope that helps!
The slope is
and the y intercept is -1
so the equation is y =
x-1

Answer: x = 12</h3>
Explanation:
The two angles shown are vertical angles. This occurs whenever you have an X shape like this, and whenever the angles are opposite one another. Vertical angles are always congruent.
6x+7 = 8x-17
6x-8x = -17-7
-2x = -24
x = -24/(-2)
x = 12
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
s<30
Put in 28 for s
28<30
Twenty eight is less than 30 so it is a solution
Steps:
1. since the least common multiple of 8 and 4 is 8, you would have to make both of the denominators 8.
2. 2 times 4 equals 8, 2 times 3 equals 6
3. 35 3/4 now becomes 35 6/8
4. your new problem is 35 6/8 - 1/8
5. 6 -1= 5
6. your answer is 35 5/8
