numerator = top part of the fraction

denominator = bottom part of the fraction

* means multiply

a.

you can only add the numerator when the denominator is the same

cant add the denominator

denominator has to be the same

1/5 = 4/20

4/20 + 7/20 = 11/20

b.

1 7/8 = 15/8

3/4 ÷ 15/8 =

3/4 * 8/15 =

24/60 = divide both top and bottom by 12 =

Step-by-step explanation:

a)1/5+ 7/20

1.find the CM of both denominators

2.multiply both the denominator and the numerator using the CM

=(1/5)×20 +(7/20)

=20/100 +35/100

since you multiply

3.Now add both numerators ( don't add the denominators)

=the answer is 55/100

Jane read 3/8 of a book for 6 days. How many books did she read?
otez555 [7]

Hey there!

The answer to your question is 2 \frac{1}{4} books.

To solve this, we must multiply \frac{3}{8} by 6

\frac{3}{8} *\frac{6}{1}=\frac{18}{8} =2\frac{1}{4}

Hope it helps! Have a great day!

Ax+bx-c=0 x= _/(a __)
Ulleksa [173]
Ax+bx−c=0

Step 1: Add c to both sides.

ax+bx−c+c=0+c

ax+bx=c

Step 2: Factor out variable x.

x(a+b)=c

Step 3: Divide both sides by a+b.

x(a+b)a+b=ca+b

x=ca+b

Solve for xx. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree, if necessary.
Tanya [424]

Answer:

56.6 °

Step-by-step explanation:

For a RIGHT triangle    cos (x ) = adjacent leg / hypotenuse

                                      cos (x) = 4.4 / 8

                                            arc  cos (4.4/8) = 56.63 °  = ~ 56.6°

Caleb and Sergio stacked boxes on a shelf. Caleb lifted 14 boxes and Sergio lifted 12 boxes. The boxes that Sergio lifted each w
Ierofanga [76]
If the weight of the boxes that Caleb lifted is equal to c, then each box that Sergio lifted weighed c + 10. The total number of pounds that Sergio lifted is equal to the product of the number of the boxes and the weight. That is,
                                12(c + 10)
Thus, the answer is letter C.

Find the area of the shaded portion. Show all work for full credit.
andre [41]
Alright, so first of all, you need to find the area of the circle that is part of the cone-shaped area so you can remove it. You need the formula:
 Area =  \pi  r^{2} ( \frac{c}{360} )where c = angle.

Now plug in the answers, and you get:
A =  \pi 6^{2} ( \frac{120}{360} ).

This would then equal to 12 \pi.


now, essentially, the shape of this ENTIRE area is of 2 right triangles. Divide 120 by 2, you get 60 degrees. You have 2 60/30/90 triangles (shown in the bottom)


Now, what you need to do is to find the area of the entire thing by using the formula to calculate the right triangle area (A = (1/2)bh). You have b, which is 6. To find the h, you use tan(60) = x/6, which gives you 6 \sqrt{3}.

The area of one right triangle of this size would be = 18 \sqrt{3}

Because 2 right triangles, multiply the area by 2 and get: 36 \sqrt{3}

Now, remember the area of that circle in that total area? subtract it from the total area (36 \sqrt{3}) by 12pi and you get 24.65.

The final answer is 24.65
