Write 85% as a fraction in simplest form.

Mathematics
1 answer:
pav-90 [236]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

17/20

Step-by-step explanation:

85% can easily be written as 85/100 and this is true, but we have to simplify to the simplest form.

An easy way to simplify is to divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

The GCF of 85 and 100 is 5.

85 ÷ 5 = 17

100 ÷ 5 = 20

We can no longer simplify 17/20 because 17 is prime so your final answer is 17/20!

Hope you have a good day and luck in finding good memes!

N+ 12 = -24<br><br> Help please
omeli [17]

Answer:

n = -36

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is -36 because:

1) We first have to subtract -24 and 12 to find n

-24 - 12 = -36

This is because whenever there are two negative signs, multiply it.

Negative x Negative = Positive

We have to do, 24 + 12 which is 36. Finally, we just put the greater number's sign to the answer. 24 is greater than 12, therefore, we put a negative sign before 36.

Hope this helps!

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Dimension of fabric = 48 by 168

What is the length of the largest square pieces into which shelly and mickelle can cut the fabric?

To obtain this, find the greatest common factor of both numbers in the dimension:

Using the table format:

___ _48 ____168

_ 2__24 ____ 84

_2__12 _____42

_2__6 _____ 21

_3__3______ 7

Since there is no number which can divide both anymore

The greatest common factor = (2 * 2 * 2 * 3) = 24

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

​4 = \frac{x+9}{x-3}

\frac{16}{4} = \frac{20}{5} = \frac{24}{6} = \frac{28}{7}

If you try all of these, you'll see that only \frac{x+9}{x-3} = \frac{16}{4} when x is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of a coin toss : (H, T)

With probability of 0.5 each

X : ____100 ____ - 110

P(x) :___ 0.5 ____ 0.5

Expected value ; E(X) = ΣX*p(X)

E(X) = (100 * 0.5) + (-110 * 0.5)

E(X) = 50 - 55

E(X) = - 5

Expected value = - 5
