Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Think: You're treating the numerator and the denom. in precisely the same way. In doing so you are NOT changing the value of the fraction, only the appearance.
Example: start with 2/3. Mult num. and den. both by 7: 14/21.
2/3 and 14/21 result in precisely the same decimal fraction, showing that the latter set of fractions is equivalent to the former set.

<em>Fraction form=31/8 Decimal form=3.875 </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions, then find the Least common denominator and combine</em>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let first group of people take x candies each
and second group of people take y candies each
5x + 7y will be total candies
5x +7y = 239 (needed to find positive solution of x,y)
now take x=38, y =7
or x=31, y= 12
hence lots of possibilities ,so we can not say exactly
Let same number of hours = x,
since the salary earned is also the same, then
Salary of supervisor A = $25x
Salary of supervisor B = $20(30)+$30(x-30)
Equating
25x=600+30(x-30)
30x-25x=900-600
5x=300
x=60 hours
Check:
Salary of supervisor A = 25*60=1500
Salary of supervisor B = 20*30+30*(60-30)=600+900=1500, ok.
