4 0

1.   9/12   divide top and bottom by 3

     3/4

now you can multiply the top and bottom by the same number and get an equivalent fraction

3/4 * 2/2  = 6/8

3/4 * 5/5 = 15/20

these are all equivalent fractions to 9/12 = 3/4 = 6/8 = 15/20


2.  16/24  

divide the top and bottom by 8  

2/3

This is as small as it goes  (keep dividing until there is no number that will go into the top and the bottom evenly).

Vaselesa [24]

12:45Answer:

Part A: 9 hours 45 minutes

Part B: $126.1575

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A,

From 7:45 to 12:15 is 4 hours and 30 minutes

From 12:45 which he clocked back in to 6:00 is 5 hours and 15 minutes.

4 hours and 30 minutes plus 5 hours and 15 minutes = 9 hours and 45 minutes.

Part B, 9 hours and 45 minutes can be represented as 9.45

And since he gets 15.35 "per" hour shows we can multiply.

15.35 x 9.45 = 126.1575

Therefor he earned 126.15.

Guys help please I am struggling
alina1380 [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  14.1 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the compound interest formula and solve for t. Logarithms are involved.

  A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

amount when P is invested for t years at annual rate r compounded n times per year.

Using the given values, we have ...

  13060 = 8800(1 +0.028/365)^(365t)

  13060/8800 = (1 +0.028/365)^(365t) . . . . divide by P=8800

Now we take logarithms to make this a linear equation.

  log(13060/8800) = (365t)log(1 +0.028/365)

Dividing by the coefficient of t gives us ...

  t = log(13060/8800)/(365·log(1 +0.028/365)) ≈ 0.171461/0.0121598

  t ≈ 14.1

It would take about 14.1 years for the value to reach $13,060.
