A fractions structure is that of:
count
size indicator of what you are counting
→
numerator
denominator
You can not directly add or subtract the counts (numerators) unless the size indicators (denominators) are the same.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Consider
3
2
3
Write as
3
+
2
3
Multiply by 1 and you do not change the value. However, 1 comes in many forms so you can change the way something looks without changing its true value
[
3
×
1
]
+
2
3
[
3

3
3
]
+

9
3

=
11

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Putting it all together
3
2
3
−
1

→
11
3
−
1
4
But the size indicators are not the same. I chose to make them become 12
11
3
−
1
4
→
[
11

−
[

−
[

→
44
12
−
3
12
Now we may subtract the counts
→
44
−
3
12
=
41
12
But this is the same as
12
12

Step-by-step explanation:
So you multiply 2 1/3times 1 1/2 and you get 3 and 1/6
Answer:
Raquel should adjust the number of rotations to 115.81 rotations
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the circumference of the wheels that are 2.5 cm in diameter
The circumference is equal to
we have
assume
substitute
step 2
Find the number of rotations
Divide 10 meters by the circumference
step 3
For a diameter of 2.75 cm find how should she adjust the number of rotations so that the robot travels the same distance
Find the circumference of the wheels
The circumference is equal to
we have
assume
substitute
step 4
Find the number of rotations
Divide 10 meters by the circumference
Since you can 4 pieces from 1 foot, you multiply 4 by 5 and you get 20 pieces.
Answer:
3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability calculates the likelihood of an event occurring. The likelihood of the event occurring lies between 0 and 1. It is zero if the event does not occur and 1 if the event occurs.
For example, the probability that it would rain on Friday is between o and 1. If it rains, a value of one is attached to the event. If it doesn't a value of zero is attached to the event.
the theoretical probability that the movie is not a comedy = number of movies that are not comedies / total movies available
12/ 20 = 3/5
