Answer:

1/4 + 1/6 = 5/12 ≅ 0.4166667

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add 1/4+1/6=1*3/4*3+1*2/6*2=3/12+2/12=3+2/12=5/12

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(4, 6) = 12. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 4 × 6 = 24. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - one quarter plus one sixth = five twelfths.

Solve 3x-2/4 - 2x+5/3 = 1-x/6
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Pasos para resolver una ecuación lineal

3x−2/4−2x+5/3=1−x/6

Multiplique ambos lados de la ecuación por 12, el mínimo común denominador de 4,3,6.

36x−3×2−24x+20=12−2x

Multiplica −3 y 2 para obtener −6.

36x−6−24x+20=12−2x

Combina 36x y −24x para obtener 12x.

12x−6+20=12−2x

Suma −6 y 20 para obtener 14.

12x+14=12−2x

Agrega 2x a ambos lados.

12x+14+2x=12

Combina 12x y 2x para obtener 14x.

14x+14=12

Resta 14 en los dos lados.

14x=12−14

Resta 14 de 12 para obtener −2.

14x=−2

Divide los dos lados por 14.

To show what he learned about the properties of volume for solids, liquids and gases, Viktor wrote the following summary.
Brrunno [24]

The wrong statement in Viktor's summary is When a round solid ball is placed in a box, the ball takes the shape of the box

The matter has three main states which are

  • Solid
  • Liquid
  • Gas

These states define the way we interact and manipulate materials. For instance:

  • Liquids take the shape of the container that contains them. For example water, milk, soda, among others.
  • Solids have a defined shape and do not deform when manipulated or placed inside another container. For example, a round solid ball.
  • Gases generally do not have colors and their atoms are not organized so they do not have a definite shape and take the shape of their container. For example, the air in a balloon.

According to the above, the error in Viktor's summary is in the first phase, and the correct statement is A. because solids does not take the shape of its container.
