Answer: 11/6
Step-by-step explanation:
5/12 - 1/9=?

Answer:
9/20 yes, 4/15 not. See below
Step-by-step explanation:
Pick 9/20 and multiply numerator and denominator by 5:
9/20 = 45/100
We know that if we divide a number by 100 we need to move the coma as two places left, so:
9/20 = 45/100 = 0.45
And this is a terminal decimal as we know where it ends.
On the other hand if we pick 4/15 let try to divide it (here I will do it 'manually'):
4 |_ 15
we can divide 4 by 15, so we use 40 and begin with a comma
40 |_ 15
0.
15 enters 2 times in 40 with a rest of 10, so:
40 |_ 15
30 0.2
100
100 divided by 15 is 6 and we have 10 as rest again, and again and again...
40 |_ 15
30 0.266.....
100
100
....
So, we will have 0.266666666666666 infinitely. The decimal for 4/15 is non terminating and is 0.26666666666666666...
Answer: 5/3
One of the side lengths goes from 3 to 5. So, the scale factor is 5/3.
Hope that helped!

You need to determine how much paper you need to cover the lateral side of the cylinder shown in the picture. For this, you have to calculate the surface area of the cylinder, which you can do using the following formula:

Where
A is the area
π is the number pi, for the calculations we usually use up to the first two decimal values of this number, 3.14
r is the radius
h is the height of the cylinder
The given cylinder has a height of h=15m and a diameter of d=6m
To calculate the lateral area you need to use the radius. The diameter is twice the radius, so to determine the radius of the cylinder you have to divide the diameter by 2

Now you can calculate the lateral area as follows:

Charlie will need 282.6 m² to cover the lateral side of the cylinder.
Answer:
3.375 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Each day Maria walks 0.75 miles, so if she walks for 4.5 days, then 0.75*4.5= 3.375 miles.
