Answer:

9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM of 5, 20, and 10 = 20

4/5

= 4/5 x 4/4

= ( 4 x 4 )/( 5 x 4 )

= 16/20

2/10

= ( 2/10 ) x ( 2/2 )

= ( 2 x 2 )/( 10 x 2 )

= 4/20

4/5 - 3/20 - 2/10

= 16/20 - 3/20 - 4/20

= ( 16 - 3 - 4 )/20

= ( 16 - 7 )/20

= 9/20

Answer:

9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find common denominators between all of the fractions.

All of these denominators can be multiplied by a whole number to equal 20.

For 4/5, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 4 to get 16/20

Leave 3/20 alone

For 2/10, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 2 to get 4/20

Now you have 16/20 - 3/20 - 4/20

= 9/20

HELP i dont know how to do this

Korvikt [17]

Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets go through B-D and explain why they are correct.

B= f represents the number of flash drives. This means that the coefficient, 10, would be the cost per flash drive.

C= n represents the number of cases of paper. it says so in the question, so that one is a bit easier.

D= f represents the amount of packages of hanging folders. If the coefficient for B is the cost, then that would be the same case for D. Therefore it is correct because the coefficient is 13.

A would be incorrect because the coefficient represents the amount that one item costs. P is the packs of pencils, meaning that it would be $7 per pack of pencils.

Hope this helps!
