Rational numbers with distribute property
Svetradugi [14.3K]

I'm not sure what this means. If you have choices you should list them.

(1/2)*(1/4 + 1/6) is an example of what should be given. There are two ways to solve this.

1. Use the distributive property.

1/2*1/4 + 1/2* 1/6

1/8 + 1/12 Which can be added using the LCD of 24

3/24 + 2/24 = 5/24

Method 2

Add what is inside the brackets first.

1/2 ( 1/4 + 1/6)

1/2(3/12 + 2/12 = 5/12

Now multiply by 1/2

1/2(5/12) = 5*1/(12 * 2) = 5 / 24 Same answer.

9. A rectangle has a length 2 ft less than three times its width. What is the area of the rectangle when its
Burka [1]

Answer:

Area = 8 square ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = Length × width

suppose length = x

width  = y

Here it is given that  x = 3 y - 2

             width is given as y = 2 ft

            ∴ x = 3 × 2 -2

              x = 6 -2

              x = 4

 Area of rectangle = length × width

                              A = 4 × 2

                                 = 8 square ft

olga55 [171]
34 and 38 are both multiples of 34 and 38 so divide each by 2
34/38 = 17/19
this is its simplest form as it cannot be cancelled down any more
