The easiest way to solve this comparison without any unusual comparisons is to find a common denominator for the two fractions.
2/5 = 18/45
4/9 = 20/45
Since 20/45 is bigger than 18/45, we know that 4/9 is greater than 2/5
Answer:
dimes: 5
quarters:8
Step-by-step explanation:
she has 2$ in quarters and $0.25 in dimes
The answer is B) 4:5
First write the ratio out. To find the simplified expression, divide by the greatest common factor (GCF). In this case, the GCF of 28 and 35 is 7.
28:35

7 7
=4:5
4:5 is the simplest form because you cannot simplify it further.
3 less than the quotient of a number y and 4
3 < y / 4
3 < y/4
x 4 x 4
12 < y
