Hello!
You subtract the amount of flour you started with by the amount you used
2.250 - 0.725 = 1.525
The answer is 1.525 kilograms
Hope this helps!
1/5 = 3/15
1/3 = 5/15
2/3 = 10/15
So no :)
Reason why:
You want to find the common denominator between all three fractions, so all fractions are the same proportions. So in this case, if you multiply 5*3 you get 15, making it the common denominator. Then since you multiplied the 5 in 1/5 by 3 to get 15, and you have to multiply the 3 in 1/3 and 2/3 by 5 to get 15, then you multiply the numerator by the same number.
Sorry I am terrible at explaining things. Hope this helped though!
Answer:
54 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Joyce age = x
Alex age = y
3x = 2y - - - (1)
y - 9 = 2(x - 9)
y - 9 = 2x - 18
-9 + 18 = 2x - y
9 = 2x - y
y = 2x - 9 - - (2)
3x = 2y
3x = 2(2x - 9)
3x = 4x - 18
18 = 4x - 3x
18 = x
Hence,
Mrs stone is 3 * 18 = 54 years
