Yes because lets say you have a 2 pies and you cut each in 5 pieces but you eat 3 slices of one and one slice of the other like this you can clearly see that one you ate more of. that is 3/5 because it has 3 colored in instead of 1 the slices are supposed to be equal but I drew them wrong

Yes it is, since 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 = 3/5. If a pizza has 5 slices and you take three, that is more than just taking one.

Find the value of the variable and MN if N is between M and Q. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

Rudiy27

Answer:
MN = 4 units

Explanation:
1- getting the value of m:
We are given that:
NQ = 4m and NQ = 12
This means that:
12 = 4m
$\frac{4m}{4} = \frac{12}{4}$
m = 3

2- getting MQ:
We are given that:
MQ = 5m + 1
We have calculated that:
m = 3
Therefore:
MQ = 5(3) + 1 = 15 + 1 = 16 units

3- getting MN:
We are given that point N is located somewhere between points M and Q.
This means that:
line MQ can be divided into two portions: MN and NQ
This also means that:
length of MQ = length of MN + length of NQ

We have calculated that:
MQ = 16 units
We are given that:
NQ = 12 units
Therefore:
16 = length of MN + 12
length of MN = 16 - 12
length of MN = 4 units

Hope this helps :)

Which is the composite number..? :(]

kari74 [83]

Question: What is the composite number?

Answer: A composite number is defined as a number that has divisors other than 1 and the number itself.

Step-by-step explanation: Start counting: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, .... so on. 1 is not a composite number because its sole divisor is 1. 2 is not a composite number because it has only two divisors, i.e., 1 and the number 2 itself.
