We need to find a common denominator(bottom number of fraction)
5/3 = 25/15 (multiply both top and bottom by 5)
1/5 = 3/15 (multiply both top and bottom by 3)
Now since the denominator is the same we can add to get 25/15 + 3/15 = 28/15
Answer:
Fraction of bread used in the recipe is 3/12 which can be further simplified into 1/4
Explanation:
The original loaf of bread is 100% complete (no fraction is taken from it yet). This means that the value of the original loaf is 12/12
Now, assume that the fraction used in the recipe is x
We know that:
2/12 of the loaf was used in making a sandwich
7/12 of the oaf was put in the refrigerator
Therefore:
complete loaf = fraction used in making a sandwich + fraction used in making recipe + fraction put in refrigerator
12/12 = x + 2/12 + 7/12
12/12 = x + 9/12
x = 12/12 - 9/12
x = 3/12
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
$22.43
Explanation:
We can start by finding the amount that they should tip. The total bill is $78, so we should take 15% of 78 and add it to the total.
0.15 * 78 = 11.7
78 + 11.7 = 89.7
This means that the total cost of the bill, with a tip, is $89.70.
Since there are 4 people, we have to split this total into 4 if they all want to pay equally.
89.70 / 4 = 22.425 = $22.43 !
Hope this helps
Answer: Yes; this is polynomial.
Specifically, it is a "polynomial EXPRESSION" ; but not a "polynomial equation" ; because it is not an "equation.
There are more than one variables/variable expressions, so it is a polynomial.
First you must find X by setting the sides equal to each other. from that you know x=4 then plug that into the w/ they give you the Equation to. = 6then multiply by 2 and you get 12
