Since both 1/2 and 2/5 have different denominators, you have to find fractions equivalent to them, (using multiples) that both have the same denominator. It's when 1/2 is equal to 2/4.
1/2=5/10
2/5=4/10
then solve with your "new" fractions with more ease.
5/10+4/10=9/10
If possible, simplify, but 9/10ths is already in it's simplest form.

Answer: 9/10

Pavel [41]

Answer:

1170450 yd^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing is to calculate the necessary perimeter, which would be like this:

2 * a + b = 3060

if we solve for b, we are left with:

b = 3060-2 * a

Now for the area it would be:

A = a * b = a * (3060-2 * a )

A = 3060 * a -2 * a ^ 2

To maximize the area, we calculate the derivative with respect to "a":

dA / da = d [3060 * a -2 * a ^ 2

]/gives

dA / day = 3060 - 4 * a

If we equal 0:

0 = 3060 - 4 * a

4 * a = 3060

a = 3060/4

a = 765 and d

Therefore b:

b = 3060 - 2 * a = 3060 - 1530 = 1530

A = a * b

A = 765 * 1530

A = 1170450 and d ^ 2

9 × 1/5 is the answer greater than or less than 9 and why
Vikentia [17]
When u multiply by a fraction, you get a smaller number. Multiplication means<span> “of,” especially with fractions. So 0.2 × 9 means, “0.2 of nine”—and that’s smaller than nine. Hope that helps
