Solve for n. 1/2n+3/4n=12
sveta [45]
First you add 1/2 and 3/4:
5/4n

5/4n = 12 so you divide both sides by 5/4
That gives you the answer of n= 9.6.

Hope this helped :)

how can i find a percentage if its not over 100? For example the fraction 4/25, how i could i turn that into a percent
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

to find percent you would simplify that fraction so that it’s a decimal (0.16) and multiply by 100 (16) and add a percent symbol so it would be 16%

basically the equation for finding percent would be

(x/y)100
