Answer:
2 7/12
Step-by-step explanation:
−512−−93=?
Since the the second fraction is negative and you are subtracting, remove the negative sign and switch the operation to addition.
The equivalent equation is
−512+93=?
The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.
LCD(-5/12, 9/3) = 12
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.
(−5/12×1/1)+(9/3×4/4)=?
Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes
−5/12+36/12=?
The two fractions now have like denominators so you can subtract the numerators.
Then:
−5+36/12=31/12
This fraction cannot be reduced.
The fraction
31/12
is the same as
31÷12
Convert to a mixed number using
long division for 31 ÷ 12 = 2R7, so
31/12=2 7/12
Therefore:
−5/12−−9/3=2 7/12
First, set up the equation.
365x + 125 = 250x + 175
Second, combine like terms on the same side by subtracting 250x and 125 from both sides.
365x +125 = 250x + 175
-250x -125 -250x -125
__________________
115x = 50
Third, divide both sides by 115 to solve for x.
115x = 50
---- ----
115 115
Fourth, simplify.
x=50/115=10/23 or 0.435
Answer:
It is 9000 cents or $90 total for 5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
If you would like to write 0.85 in a fractional notation, you can do this using the following steps:
0.85 = 85/100 which simplifies to 17/20 <span>(the common factor of 85 and 100 is 5, so you
can divide both numbers by 5).
The correct result would be 17/20.</span>
