Is 9/10 greater than 5/6

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: $(9)/(10) =(54)/(60)$
$(5)/(6) =(50)/(60)$

$(54)/(60) \ \textgreater \ (50)/(60)$
∴ $(9)/(10) \ \textgreater \ (5)/(6)$

Answer 2

Answer:

Hi there!

To see which fraction is greater, I like to divide the numerator by the denominator of each of the fractions, and then see which decimal is larger. I'll show you what I mean. :)

9 ÷ 10 = 0.9, right? Set this answer aside.

5 ÷ 6 = 0.83

Now, we compare the two fractions. If you are having trouble setting them aside from one-another, multiply the decimals by 100 to see what your percent will be.

0.9 × 100 = 90

0.83 × 100 = 83

So, we now see that 9/10 was greater than 5/6. You were right!

Hope this helps! :D

how many minutes is it before 12 noon if 20 minutes ago it was three times as many minutes after 9 am

Answers

First, change everything into minutes.
12 noon is 12 by 60 which = 720 minutes.
9am is 9 by 12 which = 540 minutes.
X is now your number of minutes before noon.So noon - x is the next step:
720 - x
20 minutes ago it was 720 - x - 20
720 - x - 20= 540 + 3x (3x because you're looking for 3 times as many minutes)
720 - 20 - 540=4x (you combine all the like numbers and variables)
160 = 4x
160/4= x
40 = x
Your answer is 40 minutes

an alternate method would be to take out 3 first

(since it is common to each term)3(2x + x - 21)

now break down the middle terms3(2x - 6x + 7x - 21)now you can proceed to factoring your equation.
