Answer:
1/63
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways to do this.
<h3>1) </h3>
Look for the GCF of the numerators when a common denominator is used.
GCF(3/7, 4/9) = GCF(27/63, 28/63) = (1/63)·GCF(27, 28)
GCF(3/7, 4/9) = 1/63
__
<h3>2) </h3>
Use Euclid's algorithm. If the remainder from division of the larger by the smaller is zero, then the smaller is the GCF; otherwise, the remainder replaces the larger, and the algorithm repeats.
(4/9)/(3/7) = 1 remainder 1/63*
(3/7)/(1/63) = 27 remainder 0
The GCF is 1/63.
__
* The quotient is 28/27 = 1 +1/27 = 1 +(1/27)(3/7)/(3/7) = 1 +(1/63)/(3/7) or 1 with a remainder of 1/63.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
3/7 = (1/63) × 27
4/9 = (1/63) × 28
= (3/8) (16x + - 24)
=(3/8) (16x) +(3/8)(-24)
=6x - 9
Answer:
The scale factor is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 2 by 1 then you get 2. I got the 2 and the one from the shapes. So don’t get confused ;)
<span>The answer is: [C]:
__________________________________________________________
Multiply each side by −8, subtract 35 from each side.
___________________________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________
Given: You have (-1/8)*(x + 35) = -7
________________________________________
Note that all the answer choices given start with: "Multiply each side by....";
</span>____________________
Given the choices, multiplying EACH SIDE of the equation by "(-8)" would make sense, since doing would cancel the "(-1/8)" on the "right-hand side" of the equation above to a "1" (i.e "cancel out" that ("-1/8") value); and would result in making the "right side" of the equation above ("-7") a positive integer number.
Then you would be left with: x + 35 = 56 ; so the next step would be to:
__________
Subtract: "(35)" from each side of the question [hence the answer choice] to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x".

<u>Answer:</u>
The denominator of a fraction is 4 more than the numerator. The original fraction is
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that
Denominator of fraction is 4 more than the numerator.
Let’s say numerator of fraction be represented by variable x.
So denominator of a faction as it is four more that numerator will be x + 4
Also given if both decreased by three than simplified result is
Solving above equation for x
=> 7(x – 3 ) = 6 ( x + 1 )
=> 7x – 21 = 6x + 6
=> 7x – 6x = 6 + 21
=> x = 27
Numerator of fraction = x = 27
Denominator of fraction = x + 4 = 27 + 4 = 31
Hence the original fraction is
