Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you're talking about simplifying/reducing the fraction.

You would not do that in this case because the numbers 7 and 16 have no common factors besides 1.

The answer is already in its lowest/reduced form. You do not divide.

Please let me know if this was not what you were talking about!

Think about it like this.
1/2 is a simplified version of 4/8.
So then putting it back into the original equation:
7/8 * 4/8 = 7/16 or 0.4375
The final answer would be 7/16 because there isn’t another way to simplify that.
I hope that makes sense, let me know if you have any questions.

kkurt [141]

Answer:

After 5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

LA Fitness charges a registration fee of $75 plus $35.75 per month for members

let the number of months be x

and the total charges be y

total is

y= 75+35.75x----------1

Gold's Gym charges a registration fee of $164 plus $17.95 for members

let the number of months be x

and the total charges be y

total is

y= 164+17.95x----------2

Step two:

equate 1 and 2

75+35.75x= 164+17.95x

solve for x

35.75x-17.95x=164-75

17.8x=89

divide both sides by 17.8

x=89/17.8

x=5 months
