<span>So
let’s simplify the given situation.
We need to find out how much heavier is 91/8 lbs. compare to 2 5/6 lbs.
Since, it’s a combination of whole number and fraction; we cannot directly
subtract this given equation. We need to convert the two given number into a
fraction.
9 1/8 = 8 x 9 = 72 + 1 = 73, 73 is our numerator and 8 is our denominator
=> 73/8
2 5/6 = 6 x 2 = 12 + 5 = 17, 17 is our numerator and 6 is our denominator
=> 17/6
Now, we have 2 fractions with unlike denominator. In order to get a common
denominator, we have to find their least common factor.
=> <u>73</u> - <u>17 </u> = <u>73 x 6 </u> - <u>17 x 8 </u> <u>
</u> 8 6
8 x 6 6
x 8</span><span>
=> <u>438</u> – <u>136 </u> Now, we
have the same denominator, subtract</span><span>
48 48
=> <u>302 </u> or <u>151</u>
48 24
=> 6 <u>7</u>
24
Therefore 9 1/8 lbs. is 6 7/24 lbs. heavier than 2 5/6 lbs.</span>
Answer:
=4.95d
Step-by-step explanation:
GCF of them is 2w.
Hope this helps :)
0.6 divided by 12.9.
0.6 is outside the house for the divide then inside the house is 12.6
then you move your decimal point over 1 place so its 06 divide by 126.
after that 6 goes into 12 twice then your have a remainder of 09 then 6 goes into 9 once, our remainder is 3, then you put a 0 at the end of the decimal point of the 126. after that you bring down your zero and 6 goes into 30 five times.
Answer 21.5
Given:
- Bought n items of product A at 1/5 rs each
- bought n items of product B at 1/4 rs each
He mixed the two items and sold each at 2/9 rs each.
He lost 3 rs in the above batch of articles.
Solution:
revenue = 2n* (2/9) rs = 4n/9 rs
cost = n/5+n/4 rs = n(1/5+1/4)
Profit = revenue-cost = 4n/9-n(1/5+1/4) = -3 rs
Solve for n
4n/9-n(1/5+1/4) = -3
factor out n
n(4/9-1/5-1/4)=-3
n(80-36-45)/180=-3
-n/180=-3
n=3*180=540
Total number of products bought
= n+n = 540+540 = 1080
