Answer: 3/6 and 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello there!
16x + 9 = 9y - 2x
Add 2x to both sides to isolate y (get it by itself on one side of the equation).
16x + 2x = 18x
-2x + 2x = 0
18x + 9 = 9y
Divide both sides by 9 to solve for y.
18x / 9 = 2x
9 / 9 = 1
9y / 9 = y
We are now left with:
2x + 1 = y
I hope this helps!
One of the better ways of addressing this is to convert both fractions to incorporate the LCD. The LCD here is 5(6) = 30, so
24/5 = 144/30 and 23/6 = 115/30. Obviously 144/30 is greater than 115/30,
so 24/5 is greater than 23/6.
Alternatively, find the decimal equivalents to 24/5 and 23/6 and then compare the results.
7/18! This is because if you double both the top and bottom of 8/9 you get 16/18. Half of 18 is 9. So if we use half a yard, 9/18, and we subtract it from 16/18, we get 7/18!
