Yes. Think of it as money.
Would .50 cents be more than .40 cents?
Yes 0.5 is bigger than 0.4
Answer:
12/100
Step-by-step explanation:
Percent is basically per 100 so 12/100
Simplest is 3/25
Answer:
3/5 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
6 Green and 9 Red
The least common denominator is
20 = 2 * 2 * 5
25 = 5 * 5
The least common denominator has two 5s and two 2s.
LCD = 2*2*5*5 = 100
17/20 = 17 * 5/ 20*5 = 85 / 100
21/25 = 21* 4/25*4 = 84 / 100
Talk about close
17/20 > 21/25 <<<< answer
But I hate to have predicted that before hand.
Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
If we let x and y represent the first and second numbers, respectively, we can write the problem statement as the equations ...
We can multiply the first equation by -9 and add 4 times the second equation to get an equation in y alone:
-9(4x +5y) +4(9x +2y) = -9(-28) +4(11)
-37y = 296 . . . . . simplify
296/-37 = y = -8 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y
The second number is -8.
