Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
With adding and subtracting fractions, you must find a common denominator. In multiplication, you just multiply numerator by numerator; denominator by denominator. In division, you multiply the fraction by the reciprocal of the 2nd. In multiplication and division, finding a common denominator is not needed.
Answer:
20 chairs
Step-by-step explanation:
After 136 people are seated in the bleacher, there can be 514 people seated in chairs. We know that 514 = 25×20 +14, so there can be 20 rows of 25 chairs. We require an equal number of chairs in each row, so there cannot be some rows with 21 chairs, nor can there be a 26th row with 14 chairs.
There can be 20 chairs in each row.
Steps in multiplying fractions. Remember: finding common denominator is not necessary in multiplying fractions.
Common denominators are only needed in adding and subtracting fractions.
14/15 * 5/2
Step 1. Multiply the numerators.
14 * 5 = 70
Step 2. Multiply the denominators
15 * 2 = 30
Step 3. Simplify the fraction.
70/30 = 2 10/30 = 2 1/3
*the fraction 10/30 can still be simplified by dividing both numbers by 10. Hence, 1/3.
Steps in Dividing fractions.
24/60 ÷ 8/15
Step 1. Get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction. Reciprocal means the reverse of the fraction. Simply swap the places of the numbers.
Reciprocal of 8/15 is 15/8.
Step 2. Multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction. Follow steps in multiplying fractions.
24/60 * 15/8 = (24*15) / (60*8) = 360/480
Step 3. Simplify the fraction.
360/480 = 9 / 12 = 3/4
360 ÷ 40 = 9 ; 9 ÷ 3 = 3
480 ÷ 40 = 12 ; 12 ÷ 3 = 4
