You can only cut it in half (vertically)
Total amount paid by Rita is $98.79
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given sales tax = 11% and cost of jeans = $89
- Step 2: Calculate amount of sales tax = 11% of 89 = 11/100 × 89 = $9.79
- Step 3: Calculate the total amount
Total Amount = 89 + 9.79 = $98.79
Answer:
- -3/13 ≈ -1/4
- -6/11 ≈ -1/2
- -7/9 ≈ -3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll drop all the minus signs, since they don't contribute anything but distraction.
When numerators or denominators are relatively large, changing their value by 1 unit will have a relatively small effect on the value of the fraction. For example, ...
3/13 ≈ 3/12 = 1/4
If we compare the decimal values of these fractions, we see that ...
3/13 ≈ 0.230769... (6-digit repeating decimal)
The closest of the offered "reasonable estimate" fractions is 1/4 = 0.25.

Likewise, 6/11 ≈ 6/12 = 1/2. In decimal, these fractions are ...
6/11 = 0.54... (2-digit repeat)
1/2 = 0.5
__
We can also increase or decrease both numerator and denominator by the same amount to get a fraction with nearly the same value. This works best when the numbers are larger.
7/9 ≈ 6/8 = 3/4 . . . . . . both numerator and denominator decreased by 1
In decimal, these are ...
7/9 = 0.7... (1-digit repeat)
3/4 = 0.75
Bh + hr = 25
you can factor out an h from the left side of your equation:
h(b + r) = 25 ... divide both sides by h
b + r = (25/h) ... subtract r
b = (25/h) - r
