In order to reduce ANY fraction to lowest terms, find any common factors
of the numerator and denominator, and divide them both by it. If they still
have a common factor, then divide them by it again. Eventually, they won't
have any common factor except ' 1 ', and then you'll know that the fraction is
in lowest terms.
Do 15 and 40 have any common factors ?
Let's see . . .
The factors of 15 are 1, 3, <em>5</em>, and 15 .
The factors of 40 are 1, 2, 4,<em> 5</em>, 8, 10, 20, and 40 .
Ah hah ! Do you see that ' <em>5</em> ' on both lists ? That's a common factor.
So 15/40 is NOT in lowest terms.
Divide the numerator and denominator both by 5 :
15 / 40 =<em> 3 / 8</em>
3 and 8 don't have any common factor except ' 1 '.
So 3/8 is the same number as 15/40, but in lowest terms.
A straight line is 180 degrees. To get x, you subtract 117 from 180.
180-117 is 63.
x= 63.
x+y is 90 degrees so to find y, you subtract x from 90.
90-63 is 26.
y=27.
Answer:
there is no solution 64x-16=64x-16
Step-by-step explanation:
if you distrubute then you will see the numbers are the same on both sides
