Subtracting fractions with unlike denominators

Mathematics
1 answer:
lawyer [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

3/12 or simplified 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First make the denominators the same. We can make 12 the common denominator. To make 3/4 have a denominator do the following:

Multiply the numerator and denominator by 3 since 4x3=12. The new number becomes 9/12.

Then subtract:

9/12-6/12=3/12  The numerator subtracts while the denominator stays the same.

We can simplify 3/12 to 1/4

If each side of a square grows 6 mm, the area of ​​the square is multiplied by 16. How long are the sides of the original square
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

2 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the sides of the original square,

then the area of the original square is x^2

The sides of the new square is x + 6

The area is (x + 6)^2

Then (x + 6)^2 = 16*x^2

Take square root on both sides and get

x + 6 = 4x,

3x = 6

so x = 2 mm
