Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so for the first one it’s super simple I’m gonna do it as less complicated so it can help you :)
So first we need to convert the mixed number to an improper fraction
1 4/5 = 9/5
Now we need to reduce the numbers greatest common divisor which is 3
3/5 x 6
Now multiply the numbers
Your answer is 18/5 I hoped this help
Now for the second one
this one is a little more complicated and I don’t know how to make it sound easier so I’m gonna tell you the answer which is 580/21
The last one is the same steps we did for the first one which is 27/20
I hoped this helped you it is a little difficult but you’ll get the hang of it :)
You have to start by using the distributive property. So you take the number next to the parentheses which is “8” and you multiply it with “2x”. This gives you “16x”. Then you multiply “8” with “3” and that gives you “24”. You now have the equation “16x + 24 = 48”.
The next step is to subtract “24” with “48”. This leaves you with “24”. Then you now have “16x = 24” as your new equation. The last step is to divide “16x” with “16”, this cancels it out with itself. Then you divide “24” with “16” and you get 1.5. So “X” equals 1.5 or you can convert it into a fraction witch gives you “3/4”.
The reason you can only compare the numerators is because the denominators are the same- leaving little comparison to really make. The numerators will determine which fraction is greater or smaller.
Ex. 4/5 or 3/5
which is greater? Which is smaller?
It can be seen that the denominators are the same, now finally comparing the numerators will answer both questions.
