1 < x < 5
Left side is 1 and right is 5
Answer:
(2/x)3 or 3(2/x
Step-by-step explanation:
The quotient of 2 and x is expressed as 2/x Multiplied by 3 can be expressed as (2/x)3 or 3(2/x)
In order to figure out whether Luis or Isabella skates farther to get to school, we have to create a common denominator between the two fractions that represent the distance that each person walks.
The least common denominator of 3 and 4 is 12. This means that we have to change both fractions into equal fractions with denominators of 12.
To figure this out, we must set up a proportion.
2/3 = x/12
To solve this proportion, we must cross-multiply the fractions. We get:
24 = 3x
If we divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 3, to get the variable x alone, we get:
x = 8
Therefore, 2/3 = 8/12, so Luis skates 8/12 mile from his home to school.
If we do the same process for the 2/4 mile to get to school for Isabella, we get 6/12, because both fractions are equal to 1/2.
Therefore, we know that Luis skates 8/12 mile to school and Isabella skates 6/12 mile to get to school. Because they have the same denominator, we can just compare the numerators. We know that 8 is greater than 6, thus Luis skates farther to get to school.
Answer:
12/32 divide by 4 and get 3/8 you can’t simplify any further after that
Step-by-step explanation:
Rick started with 10/10 of the grapes because he had all of them at the start.
Then he gave 2/10 and 4/10 of the grapes away.
10/10 - 2/10 - 4/10 = 4/10 = 2/5 left
answer: Rick had 2/5 of the grapes left.
