Which fractions are greater than -5/16 ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: -5/16

Our choices:-

A.-3/8

B.-11/12

C.-1/4

D.-1/8

Let us get all of them with a LCD

-1*2 = -2
8*2 = 16

-2/16 is not bigger than -5/16

-11/12 is bigger than -5/16 because half of 16 is 8.

-1*4 = -4
4*4= 16

-4/16 is not bigger than -5/16

-1/8 is smaller than -5/16

Final answer: -11/12 is the only fraction bigger than -5/16

Answer 2

Answer: there are infinite fractions bigger than -5/16

1. multiply to -18 add to -17 = Multiplying -18 and 1 will give -18 as the result and then on adding -18 and + 1 the result comes to -17
2. multiply to 36 add to -13 = Multiplying -9 and -4 will give -36 as the result and then on adding -9 and -4 the result comes to -13
3. multiply to -24 add to -5= Multiplying -8 and +3 will give -24 as the result and then on adding -8 and +3 the result comes to -5
4. multiply to -18 add to 7= Multiplying +9 and -2 will give -18 as the result and then on adding +9 and -2 the result comes to 7
5. multiply to -36 add to 9= Multiplying +12 and -3 will give -36 as the result and then on adding +12 and -3 the result comes to 9

Answers

Since 8x contains the variable to solve for, move it to the left-hand side of the equation by subtracting 8x from both sides.
4−3x−8x=7

Add −3x and −8x to get −11x.
4−11x=7

Move 4 to the right hand side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides.
−11x=−4+7

Add −4 and 7 to get 3.
−11x=3

Divide each term in the equation by −11.

x=−3/11

Subtract four from either side:
-3x = 8x +3
Subtract 8x from either side
-11x = 3
Divide both side by negative eleven
x = -11/3
That's your answer! Hope this helps!

The answer is given below:

You can turn these numbers into improper fractions. 5 1/3 can be changed to 16/3. 3 5/6 can be changed to 23/6. So now your equation is 16/3 - 23/6= ?
To do this we have to have common denominators. Since 3 times 2 can make 6, which is the other denominator then we can multiply the top which is 16 by 2 as well. This is because whatever you do to the top you have to do to the top. 16 times 2 is 32. Now we have 32/6-23/6. The denominator is going to stay the same so you don't have to worry about it. Take the numerators and subtract them.
32-23=?
You should have gotten 9.
So now you have 9 over 6. You can simplify this with a common factor which in this case is 3. 9 divided by 3 is 3. 6 divided by 3 is 2. You now have 3/2. You can simplify this back into a mixed number and that would give 1 1/2. This is because 2, the denominator, goes into 3 once with a remainder of 1. 1 over 2 is 1/2.
Your answer is 1 1/2.

Factor the expression 4x + 32. Explain each step you take in the process.
