Answer:
<em>In the second group the individual members received a larger fraction of the prize money</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Division by Sharing</u>
A certain amount M can be evenly split among n parties by performing a division M/n.
The first group of six friends earned $45 and they split it evenly, i.e. the same amount goes to each member. Each of them received $45/6= $7.50 apiece.
The second group of four friends won the second-place prize of $35 and they split it evenly also. Each member received $35/4=$8.75.
By comparing both numbers, we see that 8.75 is a bigger fraction of 35 that 7.50 is of 45. Each member from the second-place price will receive more money than the first group.
We can conclude in the second group the individual members received a larger fraction of the prize money
Division because if you divide the two functions together, you keep the 3 in the x term. If you add the two functions, your coefficient is 6. If you subtract, the x term is eliminated. If you multiply, you'll get 9x.
3 is smaller than 6 or 9 :)
Please take 1 minute, and really read the example solution
under problem #12. All of the other eight problems on the
sheet are solved in exactly the same way:
Multiply each side of the equation by the denominator of
the fraction ... the number under the variable (the letter).
This easy step will get you the answer to each of the
eight problems.
I can't help noticing that the title of the sheet is 'extra PRACTICE' .
If someone handed you the answers, then you would not get the
practice. That would be just like stealing from you, and would be
just plain mean.
