Is 10/50 equivalent to 4/20

We can go about this 2 ways - YOU can choose which way you find easier.

Way 1 ) Align each fraction next to each other and see what numbers go into each numerator and denominator - I'll show you what I mean :)

10/50                   4/20

2 can go into each number, so you'd find out how many times 2 goes into the numerators and denominators, then reduce it little by little.

5/25                     2/10

You keep repeating this process, but not with 2! You'd get a wrong answer! You constantly change numbers. And the same numbers are not used for both fractions all the time.

1/5                         1/5

Would you look at that! Your fractions WERE equivalent after all! But, if you'd like, you can use Way 2 below

Way 2 )

Divide each numerator by their denominator - I'll show you how

10 ÷ 50 = 0.2, or, 20%

4 ÷ 20 = 0.2, or, 20% also.

Look! Each answer is equivalent!

Now, this way is the way I like to do it, because it has fewer steps and is so easy! I hope this was very useful to you and I hope this helps! :D

Yes.

-- Take 10/50.

-- Divide numerator and denominator by 2.5 ,
   (Or multiply them by  0.4 .)

-- You now have  4/20 .

5x-11=3x+5 solve for ”x”
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

5x - 11 = 3x + 5

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

<u>Subtract 3x on both sides:</u> 2x - 11 = 5

<u>Add 11 to both sides:</u> 2x = 16

<u>Divide both sides by 2:</u> x = 8

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it is a solution.</em>

5(8) - 11 = 3(8) + 5

40 - 11 = 24 + 5

29 = 29
