Express in the form 1:n 3:12

Mathematics
1 answer:
Troyanec [42]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3: 12

To express in the form 1:n

Consider how to make 3 equal to 1, we simply divide 3 by 3 to get 1 as such, we would also divide 12 by 3

3:12

= 3/3:12/3

= 1:4

Comparing with 1:n, it is safe to say that n = 4

makkiz [27]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  420

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime factors of each denominator are ...

  12 = 2²×3

  14 = 2×7

  5 = 5

  10 = 2×5

The unique factors are 2²×3×5×7 = 420.

The least common denominator of these fractions is 420.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

  • 5/12 = 175/420
  • 9/14 = 270/420
  • 2/5 = 168/420
  • 1/10 = 42/420

at maximum speed, an airplane travels 1720 miles against th wind in 5 hours. Flying with the wind, the plane can travel the same
iragen [17]

Answer:

x = 387

Step-by-step explanation:

The wind acts in the opposite direction to the plane when the time is longer.

The wind acts in the same direction as the plane when the time is shorter.

Equation

d = r*t

Givens

  • d = 1720
  • x = plane's speed
  • y = wind speed
  • t1 = 5 hours
  • t2 = 4 hours.

Substitution

  • d = (x + y) * t
  • 1720 = (x + y) * 4
  • 1720 = (x - y) * 5

Since the two distances are the same, you can equate the right hand sides.

  • (x + y) * 4 = (x - y)*5              Remove the brackets.
  • 4x + 4y = 5x - 5y                  Add 5y to both sides
  • 4x + 4y + 5y = 5x - 5y + 5y  Combine all the terms.
  • 4x + 9y = 5x                          Subtract 4x from both sides
  • 9y + 4x - 4x = 5x - 4x           Combine
  • 9y = x

Now use one of the given equations with the distance

  • 1720 = (x + y)*4           Substitute 9y for x
  • 1720 = (9y + y) *  4      Combine
  • 1720 = 10y * 4             Multiply the right
  • 1720 = 40y                  Divide by 40
  • 1720/40 = 40y/40      Do the division
  • 43 = y                          y = wind speek
  • 9y = x                          x = 9*y  
  • 9*43 = x
  • x = 387 miles per hour.

How to write a decimal as a fraction?
love history [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert Decimals to Fractions

Step 1: Write down the decimal divided by 1, like this: decimal 1.

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. (For example, if there are two numbers after the decimal point, then use 100, if there are three then use 1000, etc.)

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the fraction.
