In order to add or subtract fractions, they must have the
same denominator.  You need to change both of these
fractions to have the same denominator ... without changing
their values, of course.

The smallest common denominator for these fractions is  20 .

     3/4  is the same amount as  15/20 .

     3/5  is the same amount as  12/20 .

Now that they have the same denominator, you can do
the subtraction.

First step: Get a common denominator.

3/4:-

3*5=15
4*5=20

3/5:-

3*4=12
5*4=20

Now we can subtract easily because we have common denominators.

15/20-12/20

15-12/20

3/20

Now we have our most simple answer: 3/20

Sarah is building a set of four shelves each shelf will have two supports in the shape of right isosceles triangle's each shelf
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

784 in² of wood

Step-by-step explanation:

Sarah  needs two supports by shelf, and  she will build 4 shelves

then she will need 8 supports

Now each support is a  right isosceles triangle.

Area of a triangle is

A(t)  = 1/2 *b*h      where  b is the base and h is the heigh of the triangle.

A right isosceles triangle has two sides ( base and heigh equals) and in our particular case are equals to 14 in, therefore

A(t)  = 1/2*14*14

A(t)  =  98 in²

Sarah needs 8 pieces of 98 in² she needs

A =  8*98

A  = 784 in² of wood
