The answer is 2/9
explanation:
10+4+4= 18 cards in the box
and there are 4 red cards in the box, so it’s 4/18. u divide both sides by 2, which gives u the simplest version, 2/9.
To put words into equations:
x+y+z =50
x=4y
4y=5z -> z= 4/5 y
Which means
4y+y+ 4/5 y= 50
29/5 y =50
29y=250
Y=29/250
In order to figure out whether Luis or Isabella skates farther to get to school, we have to create a common denominator between the two fractions that represent the distance that each person walks.
The least common denominator of 3 and 4 is 12. This means that we have to change both fractions into equal fractions with denominators of 12.
To figure this out, we must set up a proportion.
2/3 = x/12
To solve this proportion, we must cross-multiply the fractions. We get:
24 = 3x
If we divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 3, to get the variable x alone, we get:
x = 8
Therefore, 2/3 = 8/12, so Luis skates 8/12 mile from his home to school.
If we do the same process for the 2/4 mile to get to school for Isabella, we get 6/12, because both fractions are equal to 1/2.
Therefore, we know that Luis skates 8/12 mile to school and Isabella skates 6/12 mile to get to school. Because they have the same denominator, we can just compare the numerators. We know that 8 is greater than 6, thus Luis skates farther to get to school.

Can you rephrase it? (maybe write it out in numbers?)
