Answer: he got 80/100 or 80% right

Step-by-step explanation:

24/30 = 12/15

12/15 as a percent:

100/15 = 6.66666666666667

12 x 6.66666666667

15 x 6.66666666667

= 80/100 or 80%

How do i figure out 9 1/6 - 8 5/6<br> and 10 3/4 - 6 4/4?

Westkost [7]

Answer:

1) $9\frac{1}{6}-8\frac{5}{6}=\frac{1}{3}$

2) $10\frac{3}{4}-6\frac{4}{4}=3\frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You can convert he mixed numbers to improper fractions:

1. Multiply the whole number part by the denominator of the fraction.

2. Add the product obtained to the numerator.

3. The denominator does not change.

Then:

$9\frac{1}{6}=\frac{54+1}{6}=\frac{55}{6}\\\\8\frac{5}{6}=\frac{48+5}{6}=\frac{53}{6}\\\\10\frac{3}{4}=\frac{40+3}{4}=\frac{43}{4}\\\\6\frac{4}{4}=\frac{24+4}{4}=\frac{28}{4}$

Observe that, in each subtraction, the denominators are equal, then you can rewrite the denominator and subtract the numerators:

$1)\ \frac{55}{6}-\frac{53}{6}=\frac{55-53}{6}= \frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3} \\\\2)\ \frac{43}{4}-\frac{28}{4}=\frac{43-28}{4}= \frac{15}{4}$

Divide 15 by 4. The quotient will be 3 and the remainder 3.

Then:

$\frac{15}{4}=3\frac{3}{4}$

How do you solve the system of linear equations for this problem: (2.1x+4.2y=14.7) & (-5.7x-1.9y=-11.4)

Alenkinab [10]

2.1x + 4.2y = 14.7 is the same as x + 2y = 7 (divide both sides by 2.1)
-5.7x-1.9y=-11.4 is the same as 3x + y = 6 (divide both sides by -1.9)

Rearrange the first equation to get x = 7 - 2y and substitute into the second equation, 3(7 - 2y) + y = 6, 21 - 6y + y = 6, 5y = 15, y = 3

Substitute y = 3 into the first equation x + 2(3) = 7, x = 1

x = 1 and y = 3
