To solve this, all you have to do is add 1/5 and 1/3.
Well, you might be thinking, "But the denominators are not the same! Fractions have to have like denominators in order to be added together!" And you are right. So, all we have to do, is make them both have the same denominator. To do this, we have to multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same number to find an equivalent fraction.
For 1/5, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator by 3, to get 3/15.
Likewise, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 by 5, to get 5/15.
Now, you can easily add 3/15 and 5/15 because all you have to do is add the numerators, because the denominators are the same!
3/15+5/15=8/15, so she spends 8/15 hour on her math and social studies homework.
Hope I helped!
Answer:
The cost of one unit of electricity is $0.185
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount charged = $120.99
Units of electricity used = 654
The cost of a unit of electricity can be determined by dividing the amount charged by the number of units used.
So that,
cost of one unit of electricity = 
= 0.185
cost of one unit of electricity = $0.185
This implies that the cost of electricity used is charged at $0.185 per unit.
Thus for 654 units of electricity used, the cost would be;
654 x $0.185 = $120.99
Answer:
The radius of a circumcircle of an equilateral triangle is equal to (a / √3), where ‘a’ is the length of the side of equilateral triangle.
Circle Radius = 16 / sq root (3)
Circle Radius = 9.237604307
Circle Area = PI * radius ^ 2
Circle Area = PI * 85.3333333333
Circle Area = 268.083
Equilateral Triangle area = side^2 * sq root (3) / 4
Equilateral Triangle area = 16^2 * 0.4330127019
Equilateral Triangle area = 110.85
Shaded region = 268.083 - 110.85
Shaded region = 157.233
