So you are multiplying the fractions together. You do not need a common denominator. You multiply the numerators together and the denominators to get your new fraction.
1x4=4
4x7=28
4/28
This fraction can now be simplified by dividing the numerator and denominator by 4
4/28x4/4
1/7
Answer:
Both plans last for 1.25 hours (1 hour 15 minutes)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x hours be the time needed for plan A and y hours be the time needed for plan B.
On Wednesday there were 5 clients who did Plan A and 3 who did Plan B. Thus, 5x+3y=10.
On Thursday there were 2 clients who did Plan A and 6 who did Plan B. Thus, 2x+6y=10.
Solve the sytem of two equation. Multiply the first equation by 2, the second by 5 and subtract them:
Therefore,
N = ∞
∑ 3m n
n = -∞
Its been a while but I think that's correct
5.1 times 4 sides equals the answer would be 20.4<span />
Good 'ol ratio and proportion
so what yo do is
known ratio=unknown ratio
so first one
oranges
number of oranges to cost=5:2
find the cost of 2 dozen (24) oranges
number of oranges to cost=5:2
5:2=24:?
5/2=24/?
times both sides by 2 times ?
5 times ?=48
divide both sides by 5
?=9.6
2 dozen oranges costs $9.60
this one I can't see how many days
but for x days, the cost is x times $60
john drove some distance
distance to amount of gas is 48:2
how much gas needed for 78 miles
48:2=78:?
48/2=78/?
times both sides by 2?
48?=156
divide both sides by 48
?=3.25
used 3.25 gallons for 78 miles
