-2 is the answer when i figured out the problem
The first one is 4
Second is 5/9
Third is 1/2
Fourth is 11
Answer:
2/16
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
8/1=8
2/16=0.125 which is equal to 1/8
2/14=1/7
1/8=1/8 is 2/16 simplified so they are the same
14/2=7
Answer:
Length equals 16 and Width equals 4
Step-by-step explanation:
First let us create an equation. We can use L and W for length and width.
If the length is 4 times the width, then we end up with: L = 4W
It then says, " If its length were diminished by 6 meters and its width were increased by 6 meters, it would be a square."
Since a square has an equal length and width then we end up with:
L - 6 = W + 6
Knowing this we can just substitute the first equation into the second one leaving us with: 4W - 6 = W + 6
We then remove a W from both sides so that the right side is left with a 6, and add 6 to both sides to remove the -6 from the left one.
This leaves us with 3W = 12
W = 4, and if we put that into our first equation, L = 4W, then Length equals 16, and Width equals 4. We can check this by putting it into the 2nd equation. 16 - 6 = 4 + 6.
