Answer:

65.57

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Method 1</u><u>:</u>

\frac{y}{79} :\frac{17}{100}

y · 100 = 17 · 79

100y = 1343

100y ÷ 100 = 1343 ÷ 100

y = 13.43

79 - 13.43

65.57

<u>Method 2</u><u>:</u>

100% - 17% = 83%

\frac{y}{79} :\frac{83}{100}

y · 100 = 83 · 79

100y = 6557

100y ÷ 100 = 6557 ÷ 100

y = 65.57

First you have to make all the fractions have a common denominator to add them so since 3/16 is the largest denominator you have to convert the others to have the denominator of 16. 1/8 = 2/16. 1/4 = 4/16. so if you add the numerators that’s 3 + 2 + 4 = 9. so the answer would be 9/16, and this cannot be simplified so it is your final answer:)
