Answer: 71/30 or 2 and 11/30 yards
Work:
You need to add each fraction together in order to find the total amount of fabric. You should do this by finding common denominators (the number on the bottom of the fraction) and then combining fractions.
Since the order of adding doesn't matter, you should combine the fractions that are the easiest first. Start with adding 1/2 and 1/3. The common denominator is 6, since that is the LCM of 2 and 3. The fractions then become 3/6 and 2/6 which combine into 5/6. It is then easy to add the other 5/6 of a yard from the question to the 5/6 you have just found into 10/6.
Then come over to the 3/10 and 2/5 yard pieces which can be easily added together using 10 as the common denominator. These two fractions added together become 7/10.
The final step is to add the 7/10 plus the 10/6. The common denominator is 30, as it is the LCM of 10 and 6. The new fractions become 21/30 plus 50/30 which equals 71/30.
Answer:hey must have the same denominator (the bottom value). If the denominators are already the same then it is just a matter of either adding or subtracting the numerators (the top value). If the denominators are different then a common denominator needs to be found.
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, I just know the answer not the range:
330 divided by 55 is 6. It would take 6 hours.
Answer:
a) The arithmetic sequence with common difference 2 that has 8 as the first term.
b) The arithmetic sequence of common difference -5 and first term 15.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use for example the arithmetic sequence with common difference 2 that has 8 as the first term. Then the first two terms of this sequence are:
8, and (8+2) = 10 Therefore the second term is 10.
Another arithmetic sequence of common difference -5 and first term 15. The firs two terms of this sequence are:
15, and (15 - 5) = 10. Therefore again a 10 as second term.
Should be... x ÷ -1.5 = 21
