you need to make the denominators that same and then you simply simplify the problem
9 4/12 = 9 1/3
Answer: show A had 8394 performances.
Show B had 6010 performances.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of performances of show A.
Let y represent the number of performances of show B.
As of a certain date, there had been a total of 14,404 performances of two shows on Broadway. This means that
x + y = 14404 - - - - - - - - - -1
There was 2384 more performances of Show A than Show B. It means that
x = y + 2384
Substituting x = y + 2384 into equation 1, it becomes
y + 2384 + y = 14404
2y = 14404 - 2384
2y = 12020
y = 12020/2
y = 6010
x = y + 2384 = 6010 + 2384
x = 8394
Percent change formula states that
((New-old)/old) x 100 = the percent change / percent increase
So if we take your equation and plug it into our formula
((225-120)/120) x 100
(105)/120 x 100
.875 x 100
87.5 % increase of students on the trip
Hope this helps!
Answer: 1920
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 31/12, or 2 7/12
Step-by-step explanation: The answer is actually very simple. All you have to do is to simplify 10 1/3 into 31/3, as 10x3+1=31. Then, you have to multiply 31/3 with 1/4. Do a simple fraction multiplication, and you get 31/12, or 2 7/12 if your teacher is asking for a mixed number. Sometimes simplifying is better
