Answer:
x = 33/5
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 3/5 = n.......n = 6
so we sub
x - 3/5 = 6......add 3/5 to both sides
x = 6 + 3/5...convert using common denominator of 5
x = 30/5 + 3/5
x = 33/5 <===
check...
x - 3/5 = 6
33/5 - 3/5 = 6
30/5 = 6
6 = 6 (correct)...so it checks out
A fraction that is less than 5/6 and has a denominator of 8 would be 4/8 because if you compare 4/8 and 5/6 4/8 is less than 5/6. (to compare this two fractions you need to make them have the same denominator so they would end up been 4/8=12/24
5/6=20/24
And 12/24 is smaller than 20/24
(Besides 4/8 is half and 5/6 is more than half
Answer:
We need to find which expressions are equivalent to 
, 
or neither.
: We extract the greatest common factor which is 6. Remember, when we extract a GCM, we divide each term by it.
Therefore, this expression is equivalent to neither of the given expressions.
: We just need to apply the distributive property.
Therefore, this expression is equivalen to .
We use the same process to the other expressions.
, equivalent to neither.
