To know which fraction is greater than another is to first look at the denominator
<u>example</u>

if u look at the denominator the one with the highest denominator is the smallest and then you look at the numerator to imagine if its closer to the denominator or farther away from the denominator.
M^1/3 divided by m^1/5 = m^2/15<span>
m^1/5 divided by m^1/3 = 1/ </span>m^2/15<span>
m^1/3*m^1/5 = m^8/15
(m^1/3)^1/5 = m^1/15
(m^1/3m^1/5)^0 =1</span>
Answer:
The width is 5 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The rectangular field is 24 meaning adding just one width and length of the rectangle would be 12.
x = width
2x - 3 + x = 12
3x - 3 = 12
3x - 3 + 3 = 12 + 3
3x = 15
x = 5
Answer: 24 tests
Step-by-step explanation:
Ms. Carey graded 1/3 of the tests and still had 16 tests to go.
This means that the 16 tests represent the remaining proportion of the total number of tests:
= 1 - 1/3
= 2/3
2/3 of the total is equal to 16 tests. Assuming the total is x, the expression would be:
2/3x = 16
x = 16 ÷ 2/3
x = 16 * 3/2
x = 24 tests
