What is the easiest way to divide whole numbers to fractions?
Just follow these two easy steps:
1. Multiply the whole number to the denominator of the fraction. In other words, the bottom number of the fraction will be multiplied to the whole number, like this:
12 ÷ 6/7 = n
<u> 6 </u>
7 x 12
You will have 6/ 84.
2. Simplify.
6 = 1, 2, 3, 6
84= 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 42, 84
the GCF is 6. divide both numbers by 6, so the answer will be 1/14.
You can also get the reciprocal and proceed to multiplication , like this: (12/1 is the fractional form or the whole number 12.)
1/12 x 6/7=n
that makes 6/84 or 1/14.
You just have to do the opposite of what Corey did.
So (18 ÷3 +17) ×2 -25
The answer is 21
Hope I can help you, brainliest answer? :)
Let m and j be the current ages of Matthew and Jenny, respectively.
Now, Matthew is 3 times as old as Jenny, so the variables are in the following relation:
In 7 years, both of them will be 7 years older, i.e. their ages will be m+7 and j+7, and Matthew will be twice as old:
Now, remembering that m=3j, we can rewrite the second equation as
So, Jenny is 7 and Matthew is 21 (he's 3 times older).
In fact, in 7 years, they will be 14 and 28, and Matthew will be twice as old.
