Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

i am not certain but this is how I got it

First distribute which gives you the -3 with 2 I switched them around so I did -3(-5x+2) and you will get 15x-6

Then the opposite of subtraction is addition so you add 6 to both sides so you add six to 12 and to 6 leaving you with 15x=3x+18 you then will subtract 3x from 15x and 3 leaving you with 12x=18 the divide the numbers

After you divide you get 3/2 then put it has a decimal and you get 1.5

Find the greatest rational number r such that the ratios 8/15 ÷r and 18/35 ÷r are whole numbers.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

  2/105

Step-by-step explanation:

"r" is the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the two fractions. It can be found using Euclid's algorithm in the usual way.

  (8/15) - (18/35) = 56/105 - 54/105 = 2/105 . . . . . this is (8/15) mod (18/35)

We can see that the next step, division of 54/105 by 2/105, will produce a remainder of 0, so the GCD is 2/105.

The greatest rational number r is 2/105.

_____

<em>Check</em>

The ratios are (8/15)/(2/105) = 28; (18/35)/(2/105) = 27. These whole numbers are relatively prime, so there is no larger r than the one we found.

Jeremy is cutting a board into pieces that are 1 2/3 feet long . The board is 14 1/4 feet long . How many 1 2/3 -feet long piece
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Total number of 1 2/3 feet long pieces that will be cut=8 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be expressed as;

Total length of the board=length per piece×number of pieces

where;

Total length of board=14 1/4 feet

Length per piece=1 2/3 feet

Number of pieces=n

Replacing;

14 1/4=1 2/3×n

(57/4)=(5/3)n

n=(57/4)×(3/5)=8.55

Total number of 1 2/3 feet long pieces that will be cut=8 pieces
