Answer:
Q2 2010
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of quarters = x
Samsung increases by 6 each quarter.
Apple decreases by 1 each quarter.
Samsung
L = a + (x - 1)*6
a = 1
L = 1 + (x - 1)*6
Apple
L = a - (x - 1)*1
a = 53
L = 53 - (x - 1)*1
Now the problem is how many quarters go by until they meet?
1 + (x - 1)*6 = 53 - (x - 1) Remove the brackets
1 + 6x - 6 = 53 - x + 1 Combine like terms on both sides.
-5 + 6x = 54 - x Add 5 to both sides
6x = 59 - x Add x to both sides
7x = 59
x = 59/7 = 8 3/7
So sometime in the 8th quarter from zero they will be equal. At the end of the quarter, Samsung will be greater than Apple
So the answer should be 4 quarters from Q2 2009 or Q2 2010
Answer:
1/4

3 /12 is simplified to 1/4 as both numbers is divisible by 3
Theres about a 7,200,000 difference between household dogs vs household cats
Answer:
1 fifteenth, or 1/15
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 3 sons multiply the fraction by 3 and then you have 12/15 because 12/15 is equal to 4/5, so the remaining is 3 out of 15, so divide that between the 3 sons and boom, 1/15th per son.
