Answer:Add 4.3x to both sides of the equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is expressed as
3.7x - 18 = - 4.3x - 34
The main aim is to solve for x and x is on the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation. So the most efficient step would be to make all the terms containing x to be on the left hand side of the equation and the constants to be on the right hand side of the equation.
Therefore, the most efficient first step to solve for x in the equation would be
Add 4.3x to both sides of the equation.
Well, 1/3 = 428 so that you could get the same thing as 28 75 hours for you to go to school
Answer:

- 5/3 - 11/12
- 5/4 - 1/2
- 7/5 - 13/20
- 5/6 - 1/2
- 9/7 - 15/28
- 9/8 - 3/8
- 9/10 - 3/20
- 9/11 - 3/44
Step-by-step explanation:
We did a systematic search for subtraction problems of this type, eliminating ones that are too trivial, such as 1/1 - 1/4 and equivalents of those with integers added, such as 3/1 - 9/4. Even so, there are an infinite number of possibilities. some of the ones involving larger numbers in the range we looked at include ...
- 41/45 - 29/180
- 41/49 - 17/196
- 41/53 - 5/212

A reasonable approach to doing this by hand seems to be to choose a denominator for the minuend, then a denominator 4 times that value for the subtrahend. Express 3/4 using the latter denominator, and find two numbers that differ by that numerator, one of which is divisible by 4, but not by 8.
<u>Example</u>: Choose 13 as the minuend denominator. Then 52 is the subtrahend denominator, and the difference you need to create is 39/52. The smallest odd number we can add to 39 to make it divisible by 4 but not 8 is 5. So, we can use (39+5)/52 and 5/52 as our numbers that differ by 3/4. In reduced form, that subtraction is ...
11/13 - 5/52
Note that if you choose an even denominator, then the exact procedure will vary depending on what power of 2 is a factor of the denominator.
