Answer:
<u>37/8</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
we are going to create 5 1/2 into an improper fraction for now, so it is easier to manipulate.
5 1/2 = 11/10
in order to find the answer, we need to set them both to a common denominator(we need to make sure they have the same denominator so it is easier to subtract)
11/2 if we just take 1 of the cups that Abby made and subtract that by 7/8 that give us the answer
11/2 - 1 = 9/2
we will now us the cup we subtracted from that and "give it to the kids"
1 = 8/8
so
8/8 - 7/8 = 1/8
so we have 1/8 leftover from that cup, so we can add that back
since 1/8 is a hard number to just add off the top of your head, we can just change the denominator of 9/2 into 8 instead of 2:
9/2 = 36/8
so
1/8 + 36/8 = 37/8
so since 37/8 cannot be simplified anymore, the answer is
<u>37/8</u>
Answer:
Equation: 10+x= 15 +0.5x
Time: 10 days
Amount: 20$
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Equation for Benito:</u>
<u>Equation for Tavon:</u>
<u>Since the sums equalize at some time, we get:</u>
- 10+x= 15 +0.5x
- x - 05x = 15- 10
- 0.5x = 5
- x= 5/0.5
- x= 10 days
After 10 days, Juan will owe both Benito and Tavon $20
Yesterday.
Exp: if you make the denominators equal, 5/6 becomes 10/12 which is more than 7/12
Answer:
y=mx+b is the formula starting with b say it is 4 you put a dot on 4 on the y axis m is 1/2 you go up 1 right 2 on the 4 points then do the same on the next point you get then you get your line. hope this helps
