So what you have to do is make the denominators equal. You do that by finding out what number they can both go into which is 60. 12 can go into 60 5 times and so you have to do 9/12 times 5 which is 40/60. then 5 goes into 60 12 times so you have to do 1/5 times 5 which is 12/60. Then you see that 40/60 >12/60 therefore the class ate more of the pepperoni pizza

Hey there!

You have to find a common denominator. The common denominator is 60. To get 1/5 to a denominator of 60, multiply the top and bottom by 12. You get 12/60. To get 9/12 to a denominator of 60, multiply the top and bottom by 5. You get 45/60. 45/60 is more than 12/60, so the pizza that was 9/12 eaten was more. They ate more of the pepperoni pizza.

I hope this helps!

SOMEONE HELP ME ON THESE QUESTIONS
dem82 [27]

1.)  The sum(addition) of 21 and 5 times(multiplication) a number f is(=) 61.

f = unknown number/variable     [So 21 plus 5f(5 times f) equals 61]

21 + 5f = 61   [21(one-time) + 5f(number x variable) = 61(total)]

2.)  Seventeen more(addition) than seven times(multiplication) a number j is(=) 87.

j = unknown number/variable    [So 17 plus 7j(7 times j) equals 87]

17 + 7j = 87  

3.)   n = number of calls

18 + 0.05n = 50.50  

[Company charges $18 plus five cents per call(n), and the total charge was $50.50]

4.)     s = the number of students

40 + 30s = 220

[Tutor charges $40 plus $30 per student(s), and the total charge was $220]

write the 2 digit numbers that matches the clues my number has tens digit that 8 more that one's digit. zero is not one my digit
Natalka [10]
The answer is 91 because the tens place has to be 8 more so in the 80's, 8 would be 8 more than 0 and 0 is not one of the digits and it's a 2 digit number so it can't go to the 100's so 91 is the best answer. I hope this helped you

If 112 people attend a concert and tickets for adults cost $2.25 while tickets for children cost $and total receipts for the con
Brut [27]

Answer:

42 child and 70 adult

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = number of adult tickets

c = number of child tickets

a+c = 112

2.25a + 1.75c = 231

Solve the first equation for a

a = 112-c

Substitute this into the second equation

2.25(112-c) + 1.75c = 231

Distribute

252 - 2.25c +1.75c = 231

Combine like terms

252 -.5c = 231

Subtract 252 from each side

252-252 -.5c = 231-252

-.5c = -21

Divide each side by -.5

-.5c/-.5 = -21/ -.5

c = 42

Now can find a

a = 112-c

a = 112-42

a = 70
