Step-by-step explanation:
When multiplying fractions, you do not need a common denominator, and the entire fraction gets multiplied across, however when adding or subtracting fractions, you must have a common denominator, and then only compute the numerator, as the bases are already the same
Answer: Commutative property of multiplication
Step-by-step explanation: The problem 6 · 1 = 1 · 6 demonstrates the commutative property of multiplication.
In other words, the commutative property of multiplication says that changing the order of the factors does not change the product.
So for example here, 6 · 1 is equal to 6 and 1 · 6 also equals 6.
Since 6 = 6, we can easily see that 6 · 1 must be equal to 1 · 6.
In more general terms, the commutative property of multiplication can be written as a · b = b · a where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are variables that can represent any numbers.
Answer:
20-(10 2/9)-(5 1/4)= 4.52777777778 inches decimal or 163/36
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
20 - (10 + 2/9) - (5 + 1/4)
Put 10 + 2/9 over the common denominator 9. 10 + 2/9 = (9×10)/9 + 2/9:
20 - (9×10)/9 + 2/9 - (5 + 1/4)
9×10 = 90:
20 - (90/9 + 2/9) - (5 + 1/4)
90/9 + 2/9 = (90 + 2)/9:
20 - (90 + 2)/9 - (5 + 1/4)
90 + 2 = 92:
20 - 92/9 - (5 + 1/4)
Put 5 + 1/4 over the common denominator 4. 5 + 1/4 = (4×5)/4 + 1/4:
20 - 92/9 - (4×5)/4 + 1/4
4×5 = 20:
20 - 92/9 - (20/4 + 1/4)
20/4 + 1/4 = (20 + 1)/4:
20 - 92/9 - (20 + 1)/4
20 + 1 = 21:
20 - 92/9 - 21/4
Put 20 - 92/9 - 21/4 over the common denominator 36. 20 - 92/9 - 21/4 = (36×20)/36 + (4 (-92))/36 + (9 (-21))/36:
(36×20)/36 + (4 (-92))/36 + (9 (-21))/36

720/36 + (4 (-92))/36 + (9 (-21))/36
4 (-92) = -368:
720/36 + (-368)/36 + (9 (-21))/36
9 (-21) = -189:
720/36 - 368/36 + (-189)/36
720/36 - 368/36 - 189/36 = (720 - 368 - 189)/36:
(720 - 368 - 189)/36
720 - 368 - 189 = 720 - (368 + 189):
(720 - (368 + 189))/36
