Answer:

x = 60.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number

x - 54%x = 28

x - 0.54x = 28

0.46x = 28

Divide both sides by 0.46(coefficient of x)

x = 28/0.46

x = 60.86

to the nearest tenth

x = 60.9

Anni [7]

Answer: \frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the common denominator

The easiest way to do this is by multiplying the two given denominators, which are 2 and 5.

2 × 5 = 10

So, our common denominator is 10. Then, multiply the numerators of the two fractions by 2 and 5. Here's why:

\frac{3*2}{5*2} = \frac{6}{10}         We multiplied the top and bottom by 2 to make sure our new fraction stays equivalent to the original fraction.

Do the same thing for the other one:

\frac{1*5}{2*5} = \frac{5}{10}

Finally, subtract the two fractions to find the difference between the two times:

\frac{6}{10} -\frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{10}

The reason we used the common denominator is because we can only add or subtract fractions if they have the same denominator.
