<span>So
let’s simplify the given situation.
We need to find out how much heavier is 91/8 lbs. compare to 2 5/6 lbs.
Since, it’s a combination of whole number and fraction; we cannot directly
subtract this given equation. We need to convert the two given number into a
fraction.
9 1/8 = 8 x 9 = 72 + 1 = 73, 73 is our numerator and 8 is our denominator
=> 73/8
2 5/6 = 6 x 2 = 12 + 5 = 17, 17 is our numerator and 6 is our denominator
=> 17/6
Now, we have 2 fractions with unlike denominator. In order to get a common
denominator, we have to find their least common factor.
=> <u>73</u> - <u>17 </u> = <u>73 x 6 </u> - <u>17 x 8 </u> <u>
</u> 8 6
8 x 6 6
x 8</span><span>
=> <u>438</u> – <u>136 </u> Now, we
have the same denominator, subtract</span><span>
48 48
=> <u>302 </u> or <u>151</u>
48 24
=> 6 <u>7</u>
24
Therefore 9 1/8 lbs. is 6 7/24 lbs. heavier than 2 5/6 lbs.</span>
Answer:
A. Use the distributive property.
Step-by-step explanation:
We cannot use the distribute property because there are not parentheses to distribute a number through.
5x + 15 + 2x = 24 + 4x
We can collect the terms, and isolate the variable
Answer:
44 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
15 + 15 + 7 + 7 = 44
We can take all 4 sides and add them together to find the perimeter (aka how much fencing you need)
hope this helps :)
So, 30% is 0.30, but since you are taking off 30%, you are going to have 70% of the price which is 0.70. The word "of" lets you know that you are going to multiply. So, what you do is 150•0.70=105. The discounted price is $105
Anything except pi is a rational number. So 9 and 7/10 is one or it could be a whole number
