Answer:

5/10 = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying fractions are a way of making a fraction simpler!

Let's take the most well known example of 5/10.

5/10 has a common factor right? What is the GCF, or greatest common factor of 5 and 10? 5 is the GCF because that is the greatest number both 5 and 10 can be divided by.

We can simplify the fraction by dividing both, the numerator and denominator by the GCF, 5. Basically:

5/10

-------

5

This can give us 5/5/10/5

Solving this would give us 1/2.

Now, lets check our work. Multiply both the numerator and denominator by 5:

1x5/2x5

5/10 is the product!

Hope this helps!

Area and percent . ​
siniylev [52]

Answer:

a. 61.92 in²

b. 21.396 ≈ 21.4%

c. $4.71

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Amount of waste = area of rectangular piece of stock - area of two identical circles cut out

Area of rectangular piece of stock = 24 in × 12 in = 288 in²

Area of the two circles = 2(πr²)

Use 3.14 as π

radius = ½*12 = 6

Area of two circles = 2(3.14*6²) = 226.08 in²

Amount of waste = 288 - 226.08 = 61.92 in²

b. % of the original stock wasted = amount of waste ÷ original stock × 100

= 61.92/288 × 100 = 6,162/288 = 21.396 ≈ 21.4%

c. 288 in² of the piece of stock costs $12.00,

Each cut-out circle of 113.04 in² (226.08/2) will cost = (12*113.04)/288

= 1,356.48/288 = $4.71.
