13/20 reduce to lowest fraction

2 answers:

7 0

To check if a fraction can be reduced down to lower terms follow the steps below...

Step 1: Check to see if the numerator and denominator have any factors in common

13: 1,13
20:1,2,4,5,10,20

Step 2: If they have no common factors then that means the fraction can not be reduced any lower but if they do then that means you divide the numerator and denominator by that number but in this case they do not

Answer: 13/20 is the lowest it can go

I hope this helps and if any false information was given in advance I apologize.

13 / 20 =
13 / (22 * 5)
Fraction already reduced (simplified) to lowest terms, gcf (13, 20) = 1, numerator and denominator are coprime numbers (no common prime factors).

Question 5 (1 point)

sdas [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution has a unique characteristic of having equal mean and median values. If mean was higher than median, then the distribution would be positively skewed. Mean lower than median would appear in distributions negatively skewed. Each data set has a median value.

A craftsman can sell 10 jewelry sets for $500 each. He knows

liraira [26]

Answer:15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Craftsman sell 10 Jewelry set for $500 each

For each additional set he will decrease the price by $ 25

Suppose he sells n set over 10 set

Earning $=\text{Price of each set}\times \text{no of set}$

Earning $=(500-25n)(10+n)$

$E=5000+500n-25n^2-250n$

differentiate to get the maximum value

$\frac{dE}{dn}=-50n+250$

Equate $\frac{dE}{dn}$ to get maximum value

$-50n+250=0$

$n=\frac{250}{50}$

$n=5$

Thus must sell 5 extra set to maximize its earnings.

How many square feet of outdoor carpet will we need for this hole

Fed [463]

Answer:

40 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of the outdoor carpet can be decomposed into 2 triangles and 1 rectangle

✔️Area of triangle 1:

Area = ½*bh

b = 6 - 3 = 3 ft

h = 11 - 7 = 4 ft

Area of triangle 1 = ½*3*4 = 6 ft²

✔️Area of triangle 2:

Area = ½*by

b = 2 ft

h = 3 ft

Area of triangle 2 = ½*2*3 = 3 ft

✔️Area of rectangle = L × W

L = 11 ft

W = 3 ft

Area of rectangle = 11 × 3 = 33 ft

✅area of outdoor carpet = 4 + 3 + 33 = 40 ft²

Please explain how you got your answers! (: Solve the problem by using the counting principle.

A. The number of fabric-pattern-color combinations is 4 * 13 * 9 = 468

B. P(1st choice) = no of novels / total books = 3/6 = 1/2
    P(2nd choice) = no of remaining novels/ total remaining books = 2/5
    P(both novels) = 1/2 * 2/5 = 1/5 (without replacement assumed)

C. P(1st choice) = no of biographies / total books = 2/6 = 1/3
    P(2nd choice) = no of remaining biographies/ total remaining books = 1/5
    P(both biographies) = 1/3 * 1/5 = 1/15 (without replacement assumed)

D. P(1st choice) = no of history books / total books = 1/6
    P(2nd choice) = no of novels/ total remaining books = 3/5
    P(a history, then a novel) = 1/6 * 3/5 = 1/10 (without replacement assumed)

What number solves the equation x + 7.4 =11.2

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The value of x is 3.8

Solution:

Given equation is:

$x + 7.4 = 11.2$

We have to solve the equation for "x"

Move the terms so that you end up with only terms involving x on one side of the sign and all the numbers on the other

Therefore, we get

x + 7.4 = 11.2

When we move 7.4 from left side to right side of equation it becomes -7.4

x = 11.2 - 7.4

Subtract 7.4 from 11.2

x = 3.8

Thus value of x is 3.8
