Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 cannot be simplified. Neither can 7/8. Also, 3/4 as a decimal is 0.75, and 7/8 as a decimal is 0.875.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Is 3/4 less than 7/8? Is 3/4 smaller than 7/8? These are the same questions with one answer.

To get the answer, we first convert each fraction into decimal numbers. We do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:

3/4 = 0.75

7/8 = 0.875

Then, we compare the two decimal numbers to get the answer.

0.75 is less than 0.875.

Therefore, 3/4 is less than 7/8 and the answer to the question "Is 3/4 less than 7/8?" is yes.

Which of the following occurs within the solution process for 3√5x-2-3√4x=0

topjm [15]

For this case we have the following expression:

$\sqrt [3] {5x-2} - \sqrt [3] {4x} = 0$

If we add to both sides of the equation $\sqrt [3] {4x}$ we have:

$\sqrt [3] {5x-2} = \sqrt [3] {4x}$

To eliminate the roots we must raise both sides to the cube:

$(\sqrt [3] {5x-2}) ^ 3 = (\sqrt [3] {4x}) ^ 3\\5x-2 = 4x$

So, the correct option is the option c

Answer:

Option C

if u have a 2 digit reapeating decimal how do u convert it into a fraction ex.) 0.023 but 23 ia reapeting over and over how do u

Almost 60 years after taking my last math class, I discovered
how to turn a repeating decimal into its equivalent fraction.

-- Take the set of digits that repeats, no matter how many digits there are.
Write them as the numerator of a fraction.

-- For the denominator, write the same number of '9's.

-- If it's possible and you feel like it, simplify (reduce) the fraction.

You have 0.023 with the 23 (two digits) repeating forever.

-- Write the 23 (two digits) as the numerator.

-- Write 99 (two digits) as the denominator.

Now you have the fraction 23 / 99 . It can't be reduced.

You actually had 0.0... before the repeating part. That just
means that the fraction has been divided by 10. The real
equivalent fraction is 23 / 990 . (Which also can't be reduced.)

After so many years not knowing how to do it, this still blows my mind.
Just now, I punched " 23/990 "into my calculator, and stared in wonder
and amazement when " 0.023232323 " came up.
