3/4 -3/8 in simplest form?

Mathematics

solmaris [256]3 years ago

3/4 and 3/8 have to have equal denominators, so multiply 3/4 by 2/2 because it's equal to one, so it doesn't change the value of the fraction, but it makes the denominator (the number on the bottom) bigger. 
3/4 x 2/2 = 6/8
Now subtract.
6/8 - 3/8 = 3/8
Don't subtract the denominators. 
3/8 can't be simplified.

\frac{3}{4}-\frac{3}{8}= \ \ \ \ | make\ common\ denominator\\\\
\frac{6}{8}-\frac{3}{8}=\frac{6-3}{8}=\frac{3}{8}\\\\Solution\ is\ \frac{3}{8}.

What is the square of one half?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

One-half squared is one-fourth.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you divide fractions, you multiply the first term by the reciprocal of the second term. In this example, instead of multiplying 1/2 by 1/4, you now multiply 1/2 by 4. Therefore, one half is equal to 2 fourths.

Jonathan is rolling to dice and needs to roll and 11 to win the game he is playing what is the probability that Jonathan wins th
hjlf

Answer:

1 / 18

Step-by-step explanation:

In a roll of two dice :

Number of faces on a dice = 6

Total sample space for 2 6-sided dice = (number of faces)^Number of dice = 6^2 = 36

Total possible outcomes = 36

Required outcome = sum of 11

11 = {(5,6) ; (6, 5)}) = 2 possibilities

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(obtaining a sum of 11) = 2 / 36 = 1/18

Two lines, C and D, are represented by the equations given below:
lakkis [162]

y=x+14 line 1

y=3x+2 line 2

These are both the equation of lines written in slope intercept form

y=mx+b where m is the slope and the point (0,b) is the y intercept.

The first line has a slope of m=1. The 2nd line has a slope of m=3

Since these lines have different slopes, they are not parallel, thus they will cross at some point. What you have to determine is where the lines cross, which will be a point (x,y) that is on both lines.

We already have y solved in terms of x from either equation so we can use substitution to solve the system.

Since y=x+14 from line 1, put x+14 in place of y in the equation of line 2.

x+14=3x+2

solve for x.

Subtract x from both sides...

14= 3x-x+2

14=2x+2

subtract 2 from both sides

14-2=2x

12=2x

divide both sides by 2

6=x

We now have the x value of the common point. Plug the value 6 in for x in one of the original equations and solve for y.

y=6+14

y=20

These two lines cross at the point (6,20) which is a point the two lines have in common.
