a b 2
- =- =-, find ab
4 5 3
i'm gonna need supporting onthis
if you mean
a/4 = b/5 = 2/3,
then do it the same way I just showed you for your previous post
I don't know what to multiply
do i multiply 4, 5 , and 3? and 2?
a statement such as
a/4 = b/5 = 2/3
means that all fractions equal each other and are equal to 2/3
so set each one equal to 2/3
a/4 = 2/3
or a = 8/3
b/5 = 2/3
or b = 10/3
the ab = (8/3)(10/3) = 80/9 or 8 8/9
To solve this equation and find the value of "ab," we need to simplify each side of the equation separately, then equate them.
First, let's simplify the left side of the equation.
Since we have a fraction on the left side, we can simplify it by finding the common denominator for both fractions. In this case, the least common denominator is 4.
For the first fraction, "a/4," we already have the common denominator, so it remains the same.
For the second fraction, "b/5," we need to multiply both the numerator and denominator by 4 to get the common denominator of 4. Thus, the second fraction becomes "4b/20."
Now, the left side of the equation becomes: (a/4) - (4b/20)
Next, let's focus on the right side of the equation.
We have the fraction 2/3, which doesn't need any further simplification.
So, the right side of the equation remains as 2/3.
Now, let's equate both sides of the equation:
(a/4) - (4b/20) = 2/3
To solve for "ab," we need more information or equations.
It seems like there might be missing details or equations necessary to find the value of "ab." If you have any additional information, please provide it so that we can assist you further.
