What is 3/8 plus 1/12
Delvig [45]
first what you have to do you have to find the common denominator which is 24
it's 24 because 8 times 3 equals 24 and 12 times 2 equals 24 so they have a like denominator so what you have to do to the bottom you have to do to the top so 8 times 3 is 24 so 3 times 3 is 9 so the new fraction is 9/24. Then 1/12 12×2=24 and 1×2= 2 so the new fraction is 2/24. that would leave you with the problem of 9/24 + 2/24 which is 11/ 24

Readme [11.4K]
David's score on his fifth test would be an 87. If you add up all the scores from his first to his fourth test, it would 363. However, since there are five tests, in order to get a 90 percent, the sum of all five test scores would be 450. 450 - 363 = 87.

The population of a town is decreasing at a rate of 1.1% each year. If there are 3,000 people in the town right now, how many pe
Fantom [35]

total = 3000*(1-0.011)^10

1-0.011 = 0.989

total = 3000*(0.989)^10

0.989^10 = 0.895288314

3000* 0.895288314 = 2685.86

rounded to nearest whole number = 2686

 there will be 2686 people
