Answer: 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
4/9 and 11/18
<u>Solve:</u>
<em>STEP ONE: Make the denominators equal by determining the LCM</em>
LCM = Least Common Multiple
First Five multiples of 9 = 9, 18, 27, 36, 45
First FIve multiples of 18 = 18, 36, 54, 72, 90
As we can see from the list above, both 18 and 36 overlap, however, 18 is less than 36. Therefore, 18 is the LCM.
<em>STEP TWO: Compare the size and determine the greater one.</em>
4/9 = (4 × 2) / (9 × 2) = 8/18
11/18 = 11/18
Since 11 > 8, therefore, 11/18 is greater than 8/18
<em>STEP THREE: Find the difference between the two fractions.</em>
11/18 - 4/9
=11/18 - 8/18
=(11 - 8) / 18
= 3 / 18
= 1/6
Hope this helps!! :)
Please let me know if you have any questions
I don't know for sure I'm going to ace grade next year but I know that you you need to put the coefficients with the same variable together and the variable next to the coefficients and multiply or add or divide or subtract them and you get your answer and this is just 7th grade math I'm relying on
Answer:
The answer is D(20)
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't know the exact algebraic explanation, however, this is how I did it.
If you divide the second equation into seperate twos, you will get 2*2*2*2*2*2 = 
Therefore, 
meaning that x is equal to 6. Now The next bit is trial and error, 20-6=14. 
Last thing to do is to add x+y=6+14. That is why the answer is 20.
If you wait a bit longer, someone will probably have a more algebraic explanation, however, you stated you only needed the answer so I hope this helped.
Answer:
I believe that x is 12 1/3. I could be wrong.
