would some one please see if I am correct with these problems
1.Add. write the answer in simpliest form. 3/11 + 9/11 + 1/11=
13/11= 1 1/2
2. Subtract write the answer in lowest term.
19/24 - 7/24=
12/24 = 1/2
3. Victor owned 9/10 of a family business he sold 2/5 of the business to his daughter. What portion of the business does he still own?
9/10 - 2/5 = 9/10 - 4/10 = 5/10 - 1/2
4. Find the least common multiple of 24 and 48.
48
5. Which is larger,6/11 or 3/10 ? 6/11
6.Add 3/4 = 7/10 = 4/15=
1 43/60
You are mixing up = and + signs in #3 and #6. In #1, 13/11 does NOT = 1 1/2.
uh sorry , i couldn't answer.
This was before my birth.
To check the answers for the problems, let's go through each one and explain the correct process:
1. Adding fractions: To add fractions, you need a common denominator. In this case, the denominators are the same (11), so you can add the numerators: 3 + 9 + 1 = 13. The answer is 13/11.
2. Subtracting fractions: Again, you need a common denominator. Both fractions have the same denominator (24), so you can subtract the numerators: 19 - 7 = 12. The answer is 12/24. Simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 12. You get 1/2.
3. Subtracting fractions: Correctly finding the difference between fractions requires subtracting the numerators while keeping the same denominator. So, 9/10 - 2/5 = (9 * 5 - 2 * 10) / (10 * 5) = 45/50. Simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 5. The answer is 9/10.
4. Finding the least common multiple (LCM): To find the LCM, you need to determine the smallest number that is divisible by both 24 and 48. In this case, the LCM is 48.
5. Comparing fractions: To compare fractions, you can either find a common denominator and compare the numerators or convert the fractions to decimals. In this case, converting to decimals: 6/11 ≈ 0.545 and 3/10 ≈ 0.3. Since 0.545 is greater than 0.3, the fraction 6/11 is larger.
6. Adding fractions: To add fractions, you need a common denominator. In this case, the denominators are different (4 and 15). To find a common denominator, multiply the two denominators together: 4 * 15 = 60. Then, convert both fractions to have a denominator of 60.
For the first fraction, multiply both the numerator and denominator by 15: (3 * 15) / (4 * 15) = 45/60.
For the second fraction, multiply both the numerator and denominator by 4: (1 * 4) / (4 * 15) = 4/60.
Now you can add both fractions together: 45/60 + 4/60 = 49/60.
