The bar should be 8 1/24 from the each edge of the door.
We need to subtract 10 1/4 from 26 1/3 to get the fraction of the space not covered by the towel bar.
We also need to divide the difference by 2 because we placed the towel bar in the center of the door.
1st we need to convert the mixed fractions into fractions to perform subtraction.
26 1/3 = ((26*3)+1)/3 = 79/3
10 1/4 = ((10*4)+1)/4 = 41/4
Steps in Subtracting Fractions
Step 1. Make sure the denominator is the same. 3 and 4 are the denominators, they are not the same but they are factor of 12. So,
79/3 must be multiplied by 4 = 79 * 4 / 3 * 4 = 316 / 12
41/4 must be multiplied by 3 = 41 * 3 / 4 * 3 = 123 / 12
Step 2. Subtract the numerators and place them above the common denominator
316/12 - 123/12 = 316 - 123 / 12 = 193 / 12
Before we can simplify the fraction, we must divide it by two to get the measurement of each edge of the door.
Steps in dividing fractions.
Step 1. Get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
1st fraction : 193 / 12
2nd fraction : 2 /1 ⇒ reciprocal 1/2
Step 2. Multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction
193 / 12 * 1/2 = 193 * 1 / 12 * 2 = 193 / 24
Step 3. Simplify the fraction.
193 / 24 = 8 1/24
Answer:
Well, I think that the 50% coupons would give you only 50% off of your entire purchace. Not 100% off.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
6.4 minutes, or 6 minutes and 24 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
She is running 4 laps, so she is running 1600 meters total. If she runs 250 meters per minute, divide 1600 by 250 to determine how many minutes it will take...
1600/250 = 6.4
Which is 6 minutes + 0.4 minutes
*there are 60 seconds in a minute, so the 0.4 represents 40% of another minute. Multiply 60 by 0.4 to see how many seconds this is...
(0.4)60 = 24 seconds,
So she ran the laps in 6 minutes and 24 seconds
There will be no solutions because the lines have the same slope (-4) meaning they are parallel to each other and will not cross.
Hope this helps!!
