fractions:
Fraction is a part of a whole, for example 1/2. Equivalent fractions are fractions that look different but show the same amount. Improper fractions have numerators that are higher than the denominator, while mixed fractions contain whole numbers and fractions.
In order to compare fractions, you need to change them so they have the same denominator. Fractions can be converted into decimals. You need to be able to work out a fraction of a given quantity.

How do we find 3/5 of 20?
Method 1 is to find 1/5 of 20, then multiply by 3.
1/5 of 20 is 20 ÷ 5 = 4.
We need 3/5 of 20, so we multiply 4 by 3.
3/5 of 20 = 4 × 3 = 12.
you can put this in your calculator:
3/5<span> × 20 = </span>3/5<span> × </span>20/1<span> = </span>60/5<span> = 12</span>
Answer: Stephens dog weighs 60 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
What exactly are we solving?? the rest of the angles or the perimeter?
Answer:
y = - x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange - 4x + 4y = 4 into this form by adding 4x to both sides
4y = 4x + 4 ( divide all terms by 4 )
y = x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 1
given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= - 
= - 
= - 1, thus
y = - x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (- 4, 5) into the partial equation
5 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 4 = 1
y = - x + 1 ← equation of perpendicular line
