2.8 = 2 + 0.8
*let's analyze the decimal 0.8 as a fraction
0.8 = 8/10
*but if we divide the numerator and denominator by the same common factor of 2, we find that the fraction can be reduced to:
(8/2)/(10/2) = (4)/(5) = 4/5
*now evaluating the whole value of 2 (from the 2.8), we know there are a total of (5) - fifths in order to make a whole, so for 2 whole, we require:
2*(5/5) = (2*5)/5 = 10/5
*Now we add the fractions together:
2 = 10/5
0.8 = 4/5
10/5 + 4/5
*add numerators only, the denominator stays as a 5
(10 + 4)/5 = 14/5
*there are no common factors between 14 & 5 (other than 1, but that won't help reduce the fraction any), so the fraction is in it's simplest form:
answer is: 14/5

3b + 0.5a
the variables b and a are unknown values that represent the number of bananas and apples to be bought. These are next to each of its prices for it to be multiplied once we know the variable.
The costs of the fruits are to be added and you will end up with the total cost of fruits.
1) $600 deposited at 4% simple interest for one year generates:
$600 * 4% = $600 * 0040 = $24
2) If he wants to earn $132 in interest for the year, he yet needs to generate $132 - $24 = $108 (additional)
3) The interest rate to generate $108 on a deposit of $1200 in a year, at simple interest is:
$1200 * (r) = $108 => r = 108 / 1200 = 0.09 = 9/100 = 9%
Answer: 9%
