sergeinik [125]3 years ago

Answer:

I know how to this in one of two ways and I'm not sure if they're correct but anything to help.

5/6-2/5 would get you 1/3 because if you cross multiply and cross out factors that can go into each you cant pretty much get that answer. ( i think)

or

the common denominator would be 30 multiply 5 by 5 and 2 by 6. 25-12 is 13. How I was taught was find a number that both denominators can go into then multiply by that number. So 6*5= 30 so you would multiply 5 by 5 to get 25.

Hope I explained this well, I don't really think so.

B. 4.5=2m+g
f. 9.25=3m+2g

1.25=m

sub

b. 4.5=2(1.25)+g
f. 9.25=3(1.25)+2g

b. 4.5=2.5+g
f. 9.25=3.75+2g

minus 2.5 from both sides on the b. equaion and minus 3.75 from both sides on the f. equation

b. 2=g
f. 5.5=2g

divide both sides of f. equation by 2

b. 2=g
f. 2.75=g

2.75-2=0.75
