Compatible numbers are numbers that are close in value to the actual numbers and easy to add, subtract, multiply, or divide mentally. They are useful in estimating the sum, difference, product, or quotient.
Common difference r will be the difference between next two values of number row, so we take e.g. second minus first: r=9.4-6=3.4. You can see, that this value is constant as we go through next pairs of values.
CALCULATE 5/8 + 3 1/4 x -3/6 - 2 5/12 = -3 5/12
Given Equations
- 5x+3y=8--(1)
- 4x+7y=34--(2)
Let it has solution (x,y)
Add both


It will also have same solution (x,y)
A more accurate method for approximating the volume of the spherical slab other than using just cylindrical slabs is the; use the cross sections of the actual sphere, and to not use the cylindrical slabs.
<h3>What is a Cylinder?</h3>
A Cylinder is a surface created by projecting a closed two-dimensional curve along an axis intersecting the plane of the curve.
Sphere
This is a regular three-dimensional object in which every cross-section is a circle; the figure described by the revolution of a circle about it's diameter.
Therefore, the use of cross sections of the actual sphere is a more accurate method for approximating the volume of the spherical slab.
