Answer:
To find the LCD of two rational expressions, we factor the expressions and multiply all of the distinct factors. For instance, if the factored denominators were (x+3)(x+4) ( x + 3 ) ( x + 4 ) and (x+4)(x+5) ( x + 4 ) ( x + 5 ) , then the LCD would be (x+3)(x+4)(x+5) ( x + 3 ) ( x + 4 ) ( x + 5 ) .
Answer:
3/16
Step-by-step explanation:
1. you convert 1/4 into 16ths and you get 4/16

<span>the probability that a pen from the first box is selected
= total number of pens in 1st box/total number of objects in box 1
= 5/12
</span>the probability that a crayon from the second box is selected
= total number of crayons in 2nd box/total number of objects in box 2
= 6/8 = 3/4
The subtrahend is 9 and the difference is 8 and the minuend is 17
