Answer:

\frac{13}{15} m of fabric

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we add the meters of yellow fabric Aldo used with the meters of red fabric he used.

\frac{1}{5}+\frac{2}{3}

However, we have to find a common denominator between the two fractions first in order to add them together. We can do this by multiplying the numerator and denominator in 1/5 by 3, and then multiplying the numerator and denominator in 2/3 by 5.

Essentially, we're multiplying the values in each fraction by the other fraction's denominator.

\frac{1}{5} ⇒ x3 ⇒ \frac{3}{15}

\frac{2}{3} ⇒ x5 ⇒ \frac{10}{15}

Now, we add the two fractions.

\frac{3}{15} + \frac{10}{15}\\=\frac{13}{15}

I hope this helps!

what is the final amount of 17.50 that is put into a saving account with 4 annual interest rate compounded yearly for 25 years?
pickupchik [31]
To find the total amount, you will use the formula for finding compounded interest.  This means you will be paid interest on top of the interest you have earned each year.

A = P(1 + r)^nt
P stands for the principal.
r is the interest rate when compounded annually
nt is the number of years

A = 17.50(1 + 0.04)^25
A = $46.65

This person would have $46.65 after 25 years.
