Mathematics

VikaD [51]2 years ago

Answer:

In order to out a fraction in lowest terms, you must divide by the Greatest Common Factor, or GCM, of the numerator and denominator in the fraction. Let's say we have the fraction 25/100. We know that the greastest common factor of 25 and 100 is 25, as 25 ÷ 25 = 1 and 100 ÷ 25 = 4 so 25/100 in lowest terms is 1/4:

25        25       1

___  ÷ ___ = ___

100      25       4

If the GCM of a fraction equals 1, the fraction is simplified. Because the only common factor of 1 and 4 is 1, we know this fraction is simplified.

1        1         1

__ ÷ ___ = ___

4        1        4

Hope this helps <3 Please contact me if your still confused

Kruka [31]

Answer:

4 h

Step-by-step explanation:

The resting spot was at the 8 mi mark.

When Stacey reached the 16th mile, they had covered  

16 mi - 8 mi = 8 mi

They took 2 h for every 1 h, so

\text{Time required} = \text{8 mi} \times \dfrac{\text{1 h}}{\text{2 mi}} = \textbf{4h}

It may be easier to do this calculation on a number line. Each jump of 2 mi represents 1 h, and there are four jumps, so they took four hours.
