The easiest way to solve this comparison without any unusual comparisons is to find a common denominator for the two fractions.
2/5 = 18/45
4/9 = 20/45
Since 20/45 is bigger than 18/45, we know that 4/9 is greater than 2/5
Answer:
$2500 - 2%
$1500 - 4%
Step-by-step explanation:
Say the interest for the $2500 is x, so the interest for the $1500 is x+0.02.
As an equation, they would look like this:
2500x+1500(x+0.02)=110
Now solve
2500+1500x+30=110
4000x=80
x=0.02
That means the interest for the $2500 is 0.02, or 2%, and the interest for the $1500 is 0.04, or 4%.
Rational Number are set of numbers that can be written as a/b where a and b are integers, but b is not equal to 0; an integer or a fraction; for example: 6 can be expressed as 6/1 and 0.5 can be expressed as 1/2.
