Mathematics

ExtremeBDS [4]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

the common denominator for <u>1/3 and 1/5 is 1/15 So, 1/3 = 5/15 and 1/5 = 3/15</u>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

3 and 5 (The denominators) have to have a LCM (least common multiple)

Their least common multiple is <u>15</u>

That makes 1/3 = 5/15

And that makes 1/5 = 3/15

Comparing Leaking Pool Problem
Blababa [14]

Answer:

<em>Pool 1 leaks faster than pool 2.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Rates of change</u>

The rate of change (ROC) is a measure that compares two quantities, usually to know how fast one variable changes in time.

We are given two rates of change for two pools that are leaking. The first one loses 2/3 gallon in 15 minutes, and the other loses 3/4 gallon in 20 minutes.

To compare them, we are required to express time in hours. Recall one hour has 60 minutes, or equivalently, one minute has 1/60 hours. Converting both times, we have:

15 minutes = 15/60 = 1/4 hours

20 minutes = 20/60 = 1/3 hours

Now compute both rates of change:

Pool 1:

\displaystyle ROC_1=\frac{2/3}{1/4}=\frac{8}{3}\approx 2.67\ gal/h

Pool 2:

\displaystyle ROC_2=\frac{3/4}{1/3}=\frac{9}{4}= 2.25\ gal/h

Comparing both ratios, it's clear pool 1 leaks faster than pool 2.

Allison has 1/2 cup of yogurt for making fruit parfaits.Each parfait requires 1/8 a cup of yogurt.How many parfaits can she make
cupoosta [38]
Allison can make 4 fruit parfaits.

Since one parfait requires 1/8 cup of yogurt, add:
1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8

They all share a common denominator, so:

1/8 + 1/8 +1/8 + 1/8 = 4/8

Simplify your answer (divide numerator and denominator by the common factor of 2) :

4/8 = 1/2

1/2 represents the total amount of cups of yogurt used. Since it took adding 1/8 four times that represents 4 parfaits.

Find an expression for the number of colored border tiles needed for any N x N square center.
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

8N - 4 border tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 border tiles in each corner and between  the tiles there are N-2 tiles along the 4 sides.

So the number of border tiles

= 4+ 4(N - 2)

= 4 + 4N - 8

= 8N - 4.
