You can convert 2/3 into a fraction that makes adding a lot easier.
Since 3 times 2 is equal to 6, you can multiply the numerator and denominator of 2/3 by 2 to get 4/6.
From there, you add 4/6 + 5/6 to get 9/6.
Since both 9 and 6 are divisible by 3, you can simplify the fraction to 3/2.
Your final answer would be 3/2
Which can also be formatted as 1 1/2 or 1.5

Answer: 24 yards, choice D</h3>
There are 4 sides to this figure (trapezoid). The left slanted side and the right most vertical side, combined with the top and bottom horizontal sides, will get us the perimeter.
left slanted side = 5 yards
right most vertical side = 4 yards (see note below)
bottom side = 9 yards
top side = 6 yards
Add up the four sides mentioned: 5+4+9+6 = 9+15 = 24
note: the rectangle has opposite sides that are the same length. While the right most side isn't labeled, it is the same length as the left side of the rectangle, so both are 4 yards long.
Another thing I should probably mention is that we do not add in the interior 4 yard side. The perimeter is only the outer or exterior sides we care about. Think of it like we're trying to fence around some property lot and we don't want to subdivide the property up. Finding the perimeter will help us find the amount of fencing needed to surround the property.
Answer:
126
Step-by-step explanation:
the number of cargo cars is represented by the 35 part of the ratio , then
105 ÷ 35 = 3 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then
passenger cars = 7 × 3 = 21
total cars = 105 + 21 = 126
Answer: £83.70
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a ratio.
Let x be the amount he earns for 9 hours of work.
We can cross multiply:
x = 9*9.3
x = £83.70
Every number will have only 3 digits. In the ones place, there are 5 choices. For every choice of digit made in the ones place, there are 8 possible choices for the hundreds place (you can choose from 1-9, omitting whatever is used in the ones place), and there are 8 possible choices for the tens place (you can choose from 0-9, omitting whatever has already been used elsewhere).
So there are
such numbers.
