<h3>Explanation:</h3>
GCF: the greatest common factor of numerator and denominator is a factor that can be removed to reduce the fraction.
<em>Example</em>
The numerator and denominator of 6/8 have GCF of 2:
6/8 = (2·3)/(2·4)
The fraction can be reduced by canceling those factors.
(2·3)/(2·4) = (2/2)·(3/4) = 1·(3/4) = 3/4
___
LCM: the least common multiple of the denominators is suitable as a common denominator. Addition and subtraction are easily performed on the numerators when the denominator is common.
<em>Example</em>
The fractions 2/3 and 1/5 can be added using a common denominator of LCM(3, 5) = 15.
2/3 + 1/5 = 10/15 + 3/15 = (10+3)/15 = 13/15
X divided by 30 because it is going down by 30 percent.. :)
Answer:
The probability that there is no matching pair is 4/7 = 0.5714286.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first glove we have no restrictions. For the second glove, we have 6 gloves that works for us and 1 that doesnt work (the one that matches the first glove), hence we have 6 possibilities out of 7. Once we pick a good second glove, for the last glove, we only have 4 cases that doesnt match the other two pairs, out of 6 total. This means that the probability that there is no matching pair is 6/7*4/6 = 4/7.
Answer:
a) corresponding angles of similar polygons are congruent
b) corresponding sides of similar polygons are proportional
c) a triangle is a polygon
Step-by-step explanation:
By <em>definition</em>, similar polygons have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding sides.
A triangle is a polygon, so two triangles will be similar if they have congruent corresponding angles and proportional corresponding sides.
___
For an n-sided polygon, one only needs to show the conditions are met for n-1 angles and sides. Those will determine the measures of the final angle/side.
