7 + 5 to get your total for rhe first box so 12 is your denominator for the first box, and there are 5 pens so the fraction is 5/12 for the first one.

For the second box you do it the same way you did the first but with its number instead so 5 + 5 which is 10 so thats your denominator and your number of your crayons which is 5 is on top. So your fraction for the second box is 5/10 which simplifies to 1/2. But if you have to get only one fraction add them together and you get 55/60 which simplifies to 11/12.
Hope this helped!

Use the number line. Enter the integer value that point D represents.
GenaCL600 [577]

Given:

A number line from -10 to 10 with 20 tick marks.

Point D is 1 tick mark to the left of 5.

To find:

The integer value that represents point D.

Solution:

A number line from -10 to 10 with 20 tick marks. It means, each mark represents the integer values from -10 to 10.

We know that, as we move towards left on a number line the value decreases and as we move towards right the value increases.

Point D is 1 tick mark to the left of 5. It means, point D represents the integer value which is 1 less than 5.

5-1=4

Therefore, point D represents the integer 4.
