Answer:

1\frac{15}{23}

Step-by-step explanation:

38 ÷ 23 = \frac{38}{23}

Since 38 is bigger than 23, you can pull a \frac{23}{23} from \frac{38}{23}.

\frac{38}{23} = \frac{23}{23} + \frac{15}{23}

\frac{23}{23} is basically one whole, so you can put the answer as a mixed number.

\frac{23}{23} + \frac{15}{23} = 1 + \frac{15}{23}

          = 1\frac{15}{23}

What is −13+2z=−56 Thanks

<h3>Original Equation:</h3>

-\frac{1}{3}+2z=-\frac{5}{6}

<h3>Steps:</h3>

<em>*To solve for a variable, isolate the desired variable onto one side.</em>

Firstly, we want to add 1/3 to each side however -5/6 and 1/3 do not share the same denominator, and we want them to have that and we can do that by finding the LCD, or lowest common denominator. To find the LCD, list the multiples of 6 and 3 and the lowest multiple that they share is their LCD. In this case, their LCD is 6. Multiply -1/3 by 2/2:

-\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{2}{2}=-\frac{2}{6}\\\\-\frac{2}{6}+2z=-\frac{5}{6}

Now that we have common denominators, add both sides by 2/6:

2z=-\frac{3}{6}\\\\2z=-\frac{1}{2}

Next, you want to cancel out 2 to isolate z. Usually, one would divide both sides by 2, however remember that <u>dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by it's reciprocal.</u> To find a number's reciprocal, flip the numerator and denominator around. In this case, since 2 is a <em>whole number</em> this means that the denominator is 1. In this case: 2/1 would become 1/2. Multiply both sides by 1/2:

\frac{1}{2}\times 2z= -\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2}\\\\z=-\frac{1}{4}

<h3>Final Answer:</h3>

<u>Your final answer is z = -1/4.</u>

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the order of operations to evaluate the expression.

From left to right , Multiplication/Division followed by Addition/Subtraction.

21 / 3 + 8 - 4

= 7 + 8 - 4

= 15 - 4

= 11

Therefore, the answer is D

What is the answer the proprtion m+12/9m=5/9
Delvig [45]
(m + 12) / 9m = 5 / 9
cross multiply
(5)(9m) = 9(m + 12)
45m = 9m + 108
45m - 9m = 108
36m = 108
m = 108/36
m = 3 <==
