Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
the bone and the steak weigh = 1 5/8 pounds
The bone weighs 7/8
The meat weighs = 15/8 - 7/8
Converting 1 5/8 to an improper fraction gives 13/8
13/8 - 7/8 = 6/8 = 3/4
Answer:
x = 5
The two consecutive odd integers are: 5, 7
And...checking
sum = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
30/12 in simplest form is 5/2 (cause 6 * 5 = 30 and 6 * 2 = 12)
40/16 in simplest form is 5/2 (cause 8 * 2 = 16 and 8 * 5 =40)
so yes they're equivalent;
30/12 = 40/16
Hope that helps :D have a nice day!
