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).

Rafi had a board that was 15 1/2 feet long. He cut three pieces off the board that are each 3 7/8 feet long. How much of the boa
sattari [20]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, first we need to figure out how much of the board Rafi cut off.

To do this, we need to multiply the length of each piece by the number of pieces he cut off.

3 7/8 = 3.875

3.875 * 3 = 11.625

Now, because we knew Rafi cut off 11.625 feet off of the board, we just need to subtract this length from the length of the entire board to find the remaining length.

15 1/2 = 15.5

15.5 - 11.625 = 3.875

There is 3.875 feet or 3 7/8 of the board left.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (6, 8) and has a slope 1/2
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

y=1/2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug it into the formula for a point and a slope.

(y-(y(subscript 1)))=(m)(x-(x(subscript 1)))

Y-8=1/2(x-6)

Then multiply the 1/2 to the x and -6. After you do that, move everything so that it has y by itself on the left. Your ending should be y=1/2x+5.
