We can multiply both the numerator and denominator by ANY number (as long as you multiply both the numerator and denominator by the SAME number) to get an equivalent fraction
examples would be 2/12 (numerator and denominator multiplied by 2)3/18 (by 3)
4/24 (by 4) etc.
For question 4 the answer is yes and for question 5 the answer is false
Distribute The 4 In Problem Number 2. (4*2.5X)+(4*1.25) = 77
Simplify. 10X+5 = 77. Now, Subtract 5 From Both Sides.
10X = 77-5
10X = 72.
Now, Divide.
X = 72/10.
X = 7.2.
For 13, We Have This:
3/5p+2/3 = 8.
Now, Subtract 2/3.
3/5p = 7 1/3
Now, Divide.
7 1/3 Needs To Be Converted To An Improper Fraction.
It Becomes 22/3.
22 5 110
--- * --- = ----
3 3 9
Now, Make Into A Proper Fraction.
It Becomes 12 And 2/9.
Answer: 5x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 of 20 is 5.
You divide 20 by 4.
Then you get 5, which is your final answer.
Have a nice day!
