<h2>My answer~</h2>

1253/9997 or 0.12534

<h3>My explanation~</h3>

3/4 - 2/6 + 7/24

convert into decimals

3/4 = 0.75

2/6 = 0.333

7/24 = 0.29166

then use PEMDAS

add first

0.333 + 0.29166 =

0.62466

then subtract

0.75 - 0.62466 =

0.12534

then convert back or leave as is

1253/9997

what you would get when converting back to a fraction

1. Find the product. Simplify. 13/14 of 10/9. A. 15/42 B. 5/21 C. 2/7 D. 5/6 2. Andy has 5 pots, and each pot can hold 3/8 pound

Rufina [12.5K]

1) Resultant fraction: $\frac{65}{63}$

2) Total soil: $1\frac{7}{8}$ pounds

3) Result of the product: $\frac{35}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we want to find the product between the two fractions

$\frac{13}{14}$

and

$\frac{10}{9}$

In order to find this product, we have to multiply the numerators of each fraction and the denominators of each fraction. We get:

$\frac{13}{14}\cdot \frac{10}{9}=\frac{13\cdot 10}{14\cdot 9}=\frac{130}{126}$

Now we simplify, dividing both numerator and denominator by 2:

$\frac{130/2}{126/2}=\frac{65}{63}$

And the fraction cannot be further simplified.

Here we have:

n = 5 (number of pots that Andy has)

$s=\frac{3}{8}$ (amount of soil (in pounds) that each pot can contain)

In order to find the amount of soil that Andy needs to fill all the pots, we have to multiply the number of pots (n) by the amount of soil that each pot can contain (s).

If we do so, we find:

$t=n \cdot s = 5 \cdot \frac{3}{8}=\frac{5\cdot 3}{8}=\frac{15}{8}$

Which can be rewritten as a mixed fraction as:

$\frac{15}{8}=\frac{8+7}{8}=\frac{8}{8}+\frac{7}{8}=1\frac{7}{8}$

Here we want to find the result of the following product:

$4\frac{2}{3}\cdot 3\frac{3}{4}$

In order to do so, we first have to rewrite each fraction as an improper fraction.

For the 1st fraction:

$4\frac{2}{3}=\frac{4\cdot 3+2}{3}=\frac{12+2}{3}=\frac{14}{3}$

For the 2nd fraction:

$3\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3\cdot 4+3}{4}=\frac{12+3}{4}=\frac{15}{4}$

Now we can finally find the product of the two fractions:

$\frac{14}{3}\cdot \frac{15}{4}=\frac{14\cdot 15}{3\cdot 4}=\frac{210}{12}=\frac{35}{2}$

Where in the last step, we divide both the numerator and the denominator by 6.

7 . Cans of frozen OJ Total Cost ($) 1.25 1 2 2.50 3 3.75 4 5.00

aliina [53]

$\begin{gathered} x=\text{cans of frozen OJ} \\ f(x)=\text{Total cost(\$)} \\ f(x)=1.25x \\ f(1)=1.25(1)=1.25 \\ f(2)=1.25(2)=2.50 \\ f(3)=1.25(3)=3.75 \\ f(4)=1.25(4)=5.00 \end{gathered}$

Independent variable = x(Cans of frozen OJ)

dependent variable = y(total cost)
