Hey there! :D
When a fraction is still divisible by a number, then it is not in it's simplest form.
For example, 3/6.
I know for a fact that 6/3=2 <== 3 is also divisible by itself.
3/6 (3/3=1) (6/6=1)
1/2 <== simplest form.
Try the same with 2/4.
4 is divisible by 2.
4/2= 2
2/2=1
1/2 is the simplest form.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
£1690
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount invested by Brian = £1300
rate of simple interest = 10%
To find money Brian will have after three years
He will have amount invested in bank and interest earned in three years from that amount.
Simple interest for any principal amount p is given by
SI = P*R * T /100
where SI is simple interest earned
T is time period for which simple interest is earned
R is rate of interest
Substituting value of P , R and T we have
SI = 1300*10* 3 /100 = 390
Therefor interest earned will be £390
Total money with Brian after three years = principal amount invested + interest earned in 3 years
= £1300 + £390 = £1690
Answer:
y- intercept = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The y- intercept is where the graph crosses the y- axis.
Let x = 0 and substitute in to the equation, that is
y = 0² - 3(0) - 6 = 0 - 0 - 6 = - 6 ← y- intercept
The length of the fifth piece is 2 3/4 inches.
Given:
1st piece of wood = 1 1/2 inches
2nd piece of wood = 1 13/16 inches
3rd piece of wood = 2 1/8 inches
f(n) = 1st term + common difference(n-1)
To get the common difference, we need to deduct the fraction from its preceding fraction.
1st piece: 1 1/2 = (2*1 + 1)/2 = 3/2
2nd piece: 1 13/16 = (16*1+13)/16 = 29/16
3rd piece: 2 1/8 = (8*2+1)/8 = 17/8
29/16 - 3/2 = 29/16 - (3/2 * 8/8) = 29/16 - 24/16 = (29-24)/16 = 5/16
17/8 - 29/16 = (17/8 *2/2) - 29/16 = 34/16 - 29/16 = (34-29)/16 = 5/16
Find: 5th piece's measurement
1st term : 1 1/2 or 3/2
common difference : 5/16
f(5) = 3/2 + 5/16 (5-1)
= 3/2 + 5/16 (4)
= 3/2 + (5*4)/16
= 3/2 + 20/16
= (3/2 * 8/8) + 20/16
= 24/16 + 20/16
= (24 + 20)/16
f(5) = 44/16
f(5) = 2 12/16 simplified to 2 3/4 inches.
