Convert all fractions to have the same denominator.
To convert, we must find the least common multiple of the two denominators of the fractions:
Multiples of 4: {4,8,12,16,20}
Multiples of 5: {5,10,15,20}
The least common multiple of 4 and 5 is 20.
Multiply the fractions by a number that will result in the denominator being 20:


The equation should now look like this:

Subtract both sides by 8/20 to get w by itself:


The value of w is 7/20.

Quick Review:
By doing the inverse of 7/12, 12/7, when you multiply it, you'll get a value of 1.
7/12 * 12/7 = 1
Doing the Problem:
By multiplying 5 1/4 by 12/7, you'll get the answer. But first, convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction.
5 1/4 ---> 21/4
Okay, lets go!
21/4 * 12/7 = 252/28
<u>When reduced, this gives you the answer 9/1, or 9 gallons.</u>
Hope that helps, :)
Height/width=5/19
5/19=2/x
(5)(x)=(19)(2)
5x=38
5/5x=38/5
x=38/5in or 7.6in
First, you need to find the total amount they discounted.
3.66 X 3= $10.97
Since they took off that much, you need to add that to the total cost, which was 62. 31
62.31 + 10.97= $73.29
Finally, to find how much each individual shirt cost, you divided it by 3.
73.29 / 3= $24. 43
The answer is C
The slope for 1 is 3/9 or 1/3 so the equation can be y-0=1/3(x-0)
and for 2 the slope is -2/-8 or 1/4 and the equation is y-0=1/4(x-0)
