Answer:
1/63
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways to do this.
<h3>1) </h3>
Look for the GCF of the numerators when a common denominator is used.
GCF(3/7, 4/9) = GCF(27/63, 28/63) = (1/63)·GCF(27, 28)
GCF(3/7, 4/9) = 1/63
__
<h3>2) </h3>
Use Euclid's algorithm. If the remainder from division of the larger by the smaller is zero, then the smaller is the GCF; otherwise, the remainder replaces the larger, and the algorithm repeats.
(4/9)/(3/7) = 1 remainder 1/63*
(3/7)/(1/63) = 27 remainder 0
The GCF is 1/63.
__
* The quotient is 28/27 = 1 +1/27 = 1 +(1/27)(3/7)/(3/7) = 1 +(1/63)/(3/7) or 1 with a remainder of 1/63.

3/7 = (1/63) × 27
4/9 = (1/63) × 28
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
X is just an unknown variable which can be substituted as another variating condition. I.E Function of x can be written as Function of a. If no other condition is present.
A) 5 to be chosen among a Total : 10 Men + 8 Women
¹⁸C₅ = (18!)/(5!)(13!) = 8,568 groups of five
b) A must to have men and women. If so we have to deduct all groups of 5 that are all men and all group of 5 that are all women
Groups of 5 with only men: ¹⁰C₅ = 252
Groups of 5 with only women: ⁸C₅ = 56
So number of committees of 5 men and women mixed =
8568 - 252 - 56 = 8,260 committees
c) 3 Women and 2 Men:
⁸C₃ x ¹⁰C₂ = 2,520 groups of 3 W and 2 M
d) More women than men, it means:
3 W + 2 M OR (we have found it in c) = 2,520)
4 W + 1 M OR ⁸C₄ x ¹⁰C₁ →→→→ = 700
5 W + 0 M OR ⁸C₅ x ¹⁰C₀ →→→→ = 56
Total where W>M = 3,276 groups of 5 where women are at least 3
