We must follow "PEMDAS" rules for "order of operations."

Multiplication and division must be done before addition and subtraction:

40q = p + (p/3) + (p/9) + p/27

The LCD of this expression is 27. 1, 3 and 9 all divide evenly into 27. The equation thus becomes:

27(40q) = 27p + 9p + 3p + p

Adding up the four "p" terms, we get 40p. Then 27(40q) = 40p.

Simplifying thru division by 40, 27q = p. Alternatively, p = 27q.

Find the ratio of p to q by dividing both sides by q: (p/q) = 27 (answer)

The final result is: no solution.

Which length is greater 1/2 meter or 240 centimeters explain
avanturin [10]

Solution:

we have been asked to find

Which length is greater 1/2 meter or 240 centimeters.

To compare the two given lengths, we will have to make both the length in same unit system.

Here 1/2 meter can be written as 50 centimeter , because 1 meter =100cm.

Now its very clear that 240 centimeters is more than 50 centimeters.

Hence we can say 240 centimeters is greater than 1/2 meter .
