Answer:
5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
First you add 1/4+2/3.
You need to change the denominator so that they are equal to each other
If you multiply the 1/4 by 3/3 you will get 3/12 which is equal to 1/4
Then you need to do the same to 2/3. This time you need to multiply it by 4/4 to get the same denominator which will be 2/3*4/4=8/12
Then you add 3/12+8/12=11/12. You don't need to add the denominator.
After this you will need to subtract 11/12 and 1/2. This time you need to only change the denominator for 1/2.
You multiply the denominator and numerator by 6/6 to 1/2 and you will get 6/12 then you are going to subtract 11/12-6/12 and you will get 5/12
First, a bit of housekeeping:
<span>The meaning of four consecutive even numbers is 15. Wouldn't that be "mean," not meaning? Very different concepts!
The greatest of these numbers is _______ a^1
"a^1" means "a to the first power. There are no powers in this problem statement. Perhaps you meant just "a" or "a_1" or a(1).
The least of these numbers is ______a^2.
No powers in this problem statement. Perhaps you meant a_2 or a(2)
In this problem you have four numbers. All are even, and there's a spacing of 2 units between each pair of numbers (consecutive even).
The mean, or arithmetic average, of these numbers is (a+b+c+d) / 4, where a, b, c and d represent the four consecutive even numbers. Here this mean is 15. The mean is most likely positioned between b anc c.
So here's what we have: a+b+c+d
------------- = 15
4
This is equivalent to a+b+c+d = 60.
Since the numbers a, b, c and d are consecutive even integers, let's try this:
a + (a+2) + (a+4) + (a+6) = 60. Then 4a+2+4+6=60, or 4a = 48, or a=12.
Then a=12, b=14, c=16 and d=18. Note how (12+14+16+18) / 4 = 15, which is the given mean.
We could also type, "a(1)=12, a(2)=14, a(3) = 16, and a(4) = 18.
</span>
I got ten. Here's the equation.
x = 1/2x + 5
<span>Subtract 1/2x from both sides to get all x's on one side </span>
<span>x - 1/2x = 1/2x - 1/2x + 5 </span>
<span>1/2x = 5 </span>
<span>Now multiple the left by 2 to get x, but since it's an equation, you need to also multiply the right by 2 to keep it =. </span>
<span>2 * 1/2x = 2 * 5 </span>
<span>x = 10 cats</span>
