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).

A bucket is raised from a well by means of a rope which is wound round a wheel of diameter 77cm. Given that the bucket ascends i
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The wheel will make 40 revolutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Diameter = 77 cm = 0.77m

Radius = 0.77/2

Radius = 0.385 m

Speed = 1.1 m/s

time = 1min 28 sec = 88 sec

Now, we know that;

Distance = speed×time

Thus;

Distance = 1.1 × 88

Distance = 96.8 m

Also,

Number of revolution = distance/circumference

Number of revolutions = 96.8/(2 × π × 0.385)

Number of revolutions ≈ 40

What is the difference? Complete the equation. -4 - 2 1/2
Lina20 [59]

Answer: - 6 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We should note that:

=-4 - 2 1/2

= -6 1/2

For example, let's assume you owe Bob $4 and then you owe Bill $2 1/2. To calculate the total amount owed, you would have $6 1/2.

15 points<br> I really need help with this and it’s due soon please help me and explain.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

A square's diagonal has a length equal to √(2) times the length of its sides. So if the side length is <em>x</em>, then the diagonal is such that

√(2) <em>x</em> = 10 cm

→   <em>x</em> = 10/√(2) cm ≈ 7.07 cm

The perimeter of a square is 4 times its side length, so the perimeter is

4 (10/√(2) cm) = 40/√(2) cm ≈ 28.3 cm

which makes 28.4 cm the closest answer.
