How to reduce the fraction 16/24

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: To reduce the fraction in its simplest form...first find the greatest common factor of the numerator and the denominator..so in this case is 8.

Now lets divide the numerator by the GMF;
16 ÷ 8 = 2 
Next the denominator;
24 ÷ 8 = 3

So (16)/(24) = (2)/(3)
Hope this helps! :D

Solve (x + 1 < 5) ∩ (x - 4 > -3).

Answers

Answer:

(1, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 1 < 5) is solved by subtracting 1 from both sides of this inequality:

x < 4.

(x - 4 > -3) is solved by adding 4 to both sides:  x > 1.

The solution of (x + 1 < 5) ∩ (x - 4 > -3) is thus (1, 4).

B) The game is used in a school to raise money for charity.Each player pays 20p to play the game.
To win a lollipop players have to score exactly 7.
Each lollipop costs the school 30p.
How much should the school expect to raise for charity
if 120 people play the game?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "1500p".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given probability is = 7. so, it is  (3)/(12) \ = (1)/(4)

It implies, that only if  120 people enjoy the sport, its school will gather

\ 120 * \ 20\ p  = \ 2400 \ p

But, (1)/(4)  its side will survive = 30 people, as well as the school would have to invest \ 30 * \ 30p \ = \ 900p

for lollipops  So, the school will collect = 2400 - 900  =   1500p

Answer:

£15

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets find out  how much the school earns when 120 play the game.

20p=£0.20 pounds

120 x 0.2= £24 that the school earns

Now to find how much the school needs to pay.

There are 3 out of 12 spaces on the possibility space that are 7's so 3/12 win which simplifies to 1/4.

1/4 of 120= 30 people who win the game

30p=£0.30 pounds

30 x 0.3= £9

What the school earns for people playing the game - money spent on lollipops= money raised for charity

£24-£9=£15

So the answer is £15. Hope this helps and is clear enough.

Thats a trick question, but I know the answer. You are supposed to divide 20/30. but that doesn't connect with the number. So we move on to 200/30. You multiply 30 by how many will it take to get 200. The answer would be 6.666666666667(hope this will help)
