13/21 of his homework

To add fractions, you first have to set the denominators equal to each other. To do this, you find the LCD (least common denominator) of the two fractions until you find a shared number.

To do this, list out the multiples of each number (3x1=3,3x2=6,3x3=9, and so on. Do this also with 7) The LCD for 3 and 7 is 21. 3x7=21, and 7x3=21. You want to set each fraction’s denominator equal to 21.

You want to multiply each side of 1/3 by 7. 1/3 would become 7/21. You’d do this because 3x7=21, and what you multiply the bottom by you need to multiply the top by. 7x3=21 so you multiply both sides by 3 to get 6/21.

Now you have 7/21 and 6/21 and can add them. Now that they are equal, you can ignore the denominator and just add the numerators. 7+6=13 so Eric completed 13/21 of his homework.

Hope this helps!

The container that holds the water for the football team is 2/3
Kipish [7]

Answer:

18 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll find out how much of the total container was lost when pouring out by subtracting 2/3 from 1/2.

2/3 = 4/6

1/2 = 3/6

4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6

1/6 of the total amount the container could hold was lost when 3 gallons was poured out. This means that 1/6 of the container equals to 3 gallons. We can then simply multiply 3 by 6 to find the number of gallons of liquid the container can hold.

3 * 6 = 18 gallons

Checking my answer:

18 * 2/3 = 6 * 2 = 12

12 - 3 = 9

1/2 of 18 = 9

This means that our answer is correct.
