i want to make sure i am correct. the question is find the rate 635/5 seconds. my answer is 127 is this correct?
7/8 * 10/14 = 70/112 = 35/56 = 5/8
Right. It's 127 per second.
To find 7/8 of 10/14, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Multiply the numerators (top numbers) of the fractions: 7 * 10 = 70.
Step 2: Multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) of the fractions: 8 * 14 = 112.
Step 3: Simplify the resulting fraction, if needed.
So, the answer is 70/112. However, you mentioned that you simplified it to 3/6. Let's check if that simplification is correct.
To simplify fractions, you need to divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). In this case, the GCD of 70 and 112 is 14.
Dividing both the numerator (70) and denominator (112) by 14 gives us 5/8.
Therefore, the correct answer is 5/8, not 3/6.
