Its 2 8/15 Conversion a mixed number 1 2
5
to a improper fraction: 1 2/5 = 1 2
5
= 1 · 5 + 2
5
= 5 + 2
5
= 7
5
To find new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number 1 by the denominator 5. Whole number 1 equally 1 * 5
5
= 5
5
b) Add the answer from previous step 5 to the numerator 2. New numerator is 5 + 2 = 7
c) Write previous answer (new numerator 7) over the denominator 5.
One and two fifths is seven fifths
Conversion a mixed number -1 2
15
to a improper fraction: -1 2/15 = -1 2
15
= -1 · 15 + (-2)
15
= -15 + (-2)
15
= -17
15
To find new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number -1 by the denominator 15. Whole number -1 equally -1 * 15
15
= -15
15
b) Add the answer from previous step -15 to the numerator 2. New numerator is -15 + 2 = -13
c) Write previous answer (new numerator -13) over the denominator 15.
Minus one and two fifteenths is minus thirteen fifteenth
Subtract: 7

The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(5, 15) = 15. The fraction result cannot be further simplified by cancelling.
In words - seven fifths minus minus seventeen fifteenth = thirty-eight fifteenths.
Distribute 2/5 and 3/5 into the ():
2/5(a+b)+3/5(a+c)
2/5 a+ 2/5 b+3/5 a+ 3/5 c
combine the like terms:
2/5 a+3/5 a= 5/5 a --> 1a --> a
new simplified equation:
a+2/5 b+3/5 c
Answer:
Hope this helps at all. :)
The formula to find the arc length L is
L = r*theta
where r is the radius and theta is the central angle in radians (this formula will not work if theta is in degrees)
If the central angle is 1 radian, then theta = 1 and
L = r*theta
L = r*1
L = r
So the arc length is the same as the radius
Answer: Choice A) The radius of the circle
