Answer:

No 2/3 is not greater than 5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the greater number see below.

First, we need to find the LCM of denominators(3 and 7)

= LCM of 3 and 7 = 21

= 2 × 7 = 14, 3 × 7 = 21

= 5 × 3 = 15, 7 × 3 = 21

Now, we can easily identify that which number is larger.

2/3 is equal to 14/21, and 5/7 is equal to 15/21.

So, here 14/21 is not greater than 15/21.

So, 2/3 is not equal to 5/7.

What is... X/2 - 13 = 1

kow [346]

X ÷ 2 - 13 = 1
Write the division as a fraction
$\frac{1}{2}x - 13 = 1$
Multiple both sides of the equation by 2
$2 \times \frac{1}{2}x \times - 2 \times 13 = 12$
Reduce the number with greatest common divisor 2
$x - 2 \times 3 = 2$
Multiply the numbers
$- 2 \times 13$
Then u will have
$x - 26 = 2$
Move constant to the right by adding its opposite sides
$x - 26 + 26 = 2 + 26$
Eliminate the opposites
$- 26 + 26$
Then you have
$x = 2 + 26$
Add the numbers
$x = 28$
