Answer:
33/20
Step-by-step explanation:
1/12 - 1/15 = 5/60 - 4/60 = 1/60
d = 1/60
a_n = a_1 + d(n - 1)
a_11 = 1/15 + (1/60)(11 - 1)
a_11 = 1/15 + 1/6
a_11 = 4/60 + 10/60
a_11 = 14/60
a_11 = 7/30
a_12 = 14/60 + 1/60
a_12 = 15/60
a_12 = 1/4
s_n = n(a_1 + a_n)/2
s_11 = 11(1/15 + 7/30)/2
s_11 = 11(2/30 + 7/30)/2
s_11 = 11(9/30)/2
s_11 = 99/60
s_11 = 33/20
The sand makes up a rectangular prism of dimensions 8' by 10' by 0.5'.
The volume of sand is then V = L*W*H, or V = (10')(8')(0.5') = 40 cubic ft.
Answer:
9/10
1/2+2/5
Since these fractions have different denominators, we need to find the least common multiple of the denominators.The least common multiple of 2 and 5 is 10, so we need to multiply to make each of the denominators = 10
1/2 ∗ 5/5 = 5/10
5/2∗ 2/2= 4/10
Since these fractions have the same denominator, we can just add the numerators
5/10+ 4/10 = 9/10
