It is closets to 1 because 1/2 would be 5/10 and its more on the 1/1 side :)
To simplest form of a fraction you find the lowest common factor, usually I use this trick: if both numbers are even I keep dividing by 2 to the numerator and denominator till I can't anymore
In this case:
6 divided by 2= 3
--- ---
8 divided by 2= 4
now I can't simplify an further because 3 isn't an even number, therefore its the simplest form
remember= my trick only works if both number are even, if not you'll have to find the lowest common factor and divide them by that
Answer:
B. Yes, the surface area of Earth is only 1.1 times the surface area of Venus.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that the surface area of Venus is 460,230,000 km2 whereas Earth is .
We can see that area of Earth is given in scientific notation and area of Venus is given in standard form, so first of all let us convert area of Earth in standard form.
To compare our given surface areas we can set an equation as:
Upon rounding our answer to nearest tenth we will get,
Therefore, the surface area of Earth is only 1.1 times the surface area of Venus and option B is the correct choice.
Turn 3/4 into a fraction with a denominator of 8 by multiplying both the numerator and denominator. so you'll get 6/8 for the first one. 3/4+1/8=7/8
