A fraction reduces to 36. If its denominator is 6x5, what is its numerator?

A.)63x
B.)63x5
C.)6x5
D.)67x5

I think the answer is B.
Thank You.

Yes option B (6^3x^5) is correct

here are the answers to the rest fi you are on Pearson Connexus
1. D
2. A
3. B
4. B
5. B
it seems a little odd for the test to have 3 b's in a row but i got a 100%

I think you have a typo

is that 6x5 supposed to say 6x^5 ??

let's see:

n/6x^5 = 36
n = 36(6^5) , which could be your mis-typed B

thank you sooooo so much beep beep :3

Thanks beep beep

Thanks beep beep!

For some people it may be:

D.

B.

To find the numerator of a fraction that reduces to 36, you need to multiply the denominator (6x5) by the reduced fraction (36).

The correct answer is B.) 63x5.

To see why this is the correct answer, consider the steps involved:

Step 1: Reduce the fraction
To reduce the fraction, you need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator and divide both the numerator and denominator by this GCD. In this case, the GCD of 36 and 6x5 is 6.

Dividing both the numerator (36) and denominator (6x5) by 6 gives:
Numerator: 36 ÷ 6 = 6
Denominator: (6x5) ÷ 6 = 5

So, the fraction after reducing is 6/5.

Step 2: Multiply the reduced fraction by the denominator
To get the numerator of the fraction, you need to multiply the reduced fraction (6/5) by the denominator (6x5).

6/5 * 6x5 = (6 * 6) / (5 * 1) = 36/5

Therefore, the numerator of the fraction is 36, and the denominator is 5.

Since none of the answer choices match a fraction of 36/5, it seems there may be an error in the question or answer choices provided.

beep beep is still right as of January 2024, but here are the answers just in case:

D. x^4
A. 5(5^3 / 2/5)^2
B. 6^3 x^5
B. 4.5 * 10^9
B. To subtract powers with the same base, divide the exponents.

Have a nice day! :)
