Answer:

680

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of red to white 4 : 7

Number of white = 280

White + red buttons = x

7x / 11 = 280

7x = 280 * 11

7x = 3080

x = 3080 / 7

x = 440

Number of red buttons 440 - 280 = 160

Number of red bottons ;

Blue + red buttons = x

3 : 2 ; blue : red

3 + 2 = 5 ;

2x / 5 = 160

2x = 160 * 5

2x = 800

x = 800 / 2

x = 400

Number of Blue buttons :

400 - 160 = 240

Total :

White + red + blue

280 + 160 + 240 = 680 buttons

I need help finding the lowest term for -8/9+11/15

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

-7/45

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the lowest common denominator for 9 and 15. It's 45. Make both fractions over 45 by multiplying the top and bottom by the same number.

$-\frac{8}{9} +\frac{11}{15}$

$= -\frac{8*5}{9*5} +\frac{11*3}{15*3}$ Since 15*3=45, multiply the top by 3 also. Since 9*5=45, multiply the top by 5 also.

$= -\frac{40}{45} +\frac{33}{45}$

$= \frac{-40+33}{45}$ Combine the fractions

$= -\frac{7}{45}$ Answer in lowest terms

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>

Periodic payment P = $200,
Period t = 2 years,
Number of compounds, monthly n = 12,
Interest rate, r = 3.2% = 0.032.

Future value of saving, F

<h3>Solution</h3>

Use periodic compound formula:

$F=P\cfrac{(1+r/n)^{nt}-1}{r/n}$

Substitute the values and calculate:

$F=200\cfrac{(1+0.032/12)^{12*2}-1}{0.032/12} =4950.12$ rounded
