Choose the set of equivalent fractions that correctly uses the LCD for these fractions: 2/9 and 5/12

Mathematics

3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

the lowest common denominator (LCD) is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of the denominator numbers (the ones at the bottom of the fractions).

finding the LCM of 9 and 12 using the prime factor method :

9 = 3×3

12 = 2×2×3

the LCM is the combination of the longest chains per prime factor. which means we have 2×2 and 3×3 as longest chains for 2 and 3.

LCD = LCM = 2×2×3×3 = 36

2/9 turns into x/36 by multiplying by 4/4 :

2/9 × 4/4 = 8/36

5/12 turns into x/36 by multiplying by 3/3 :

5/12 × 3/3 = 15/36

so, the third answer option is correct.

Just need help with these questions 16,20 24,25 Need Help Fast
Novay_Z [31]
For number 16, keep the slope and plug in the values of x and y and solve for the y intercept. For 20 take the opposite reciprocal and then plug in the values of x and y and solve for y intercept. For number 24 and 25 convert both into slope intercept form (y=mx+b) and see if they are parallel or perpendicular

If a triangle has a height of 12 inches in the base of 5 inches what is the area
tatiyna
<span>The area of the triangle with height 12 inches and the base of 5 inches is 30 square inches. The area (A) of a triangle with height, h, and base, b, is: A = h * b / 2. We know that h = 12 in and that b = 5 in. Therefore, the area of this triangle will be: A = 12 in * 5 in / 2 = 60 in^2 / 2 = 30 in^2. The area of the triangle is 30 square inches.</span>
