Yolandera decided to paint 4/5 of the rooms in her home last year. By the end of the year, she completed 2/3 of the rooms. How much of her home was painted last year?

Answer 1

To find out how much of her home was painted last year, we need to add together the two fractions: 4/5 + 2/3 = ____
To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The smallest number divisible evenly by 5 and 3 is 15 and so the equivalent fractions are: 4/5 * 3/3 + 2/3 * 5/5 = (4*3) / (5*3) + (2*5) / (3*5) = 12/15 + 10/15 = (12+10) / 15 = 22 / 15.

So, Yolandera painted 22/15 of her home last year.

Answer 2

can u simplify if plss

Answer 3

Apologies for the error in the previous response.

To simplify the fraction 22/15, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor. In this case, the greatest common divisor of 22 and 15 is 1.

So, 22/15 cannot be simplified any further.

Answer 4

well, ur answer choices are 2/9,8/15,6/15,1/3,2/3

Answer 5

Apologies for the confusion. We need to find a common denominator to add the fractions.

The common denominator of 5 and 3 is 15.

Converting 4/5 to have a denominator of 15: (4/5) * (3/3) = 12/15
Converting 2/3 to have a denominator of 15: (2/3) * (5/5) = 10/15

Now, we can add the fractions: 12/15 + 10/15 = 22/15

22/15 cannot be simplified any further. However, none of the answer choices given match 22/15. It appears there might be an error in the answer choices.

Answer 6

3/8 ÷ 2

Answer 7

To divide a fraction by a whole number, you can write the whole number as a fraction with a denominator of 1.

So, 2 as a fraction is 2/1.

To divide 3/8 by 2/1, you need to multiply the dividend (3/8) by the reciprocal of the divisor (2/1).

So, (3/8) ÷ (2/1) = (3/8) * (1/2)

When you multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

(3/8) * (1/2) = (3*1) / (8*2) = 3/16

Therefore, 3/8 ÷ 2 = 3/16.

Answer 8

2 1/3 ÷ 2/5

Answer 9

To divide a mixed number by a fraction, it's helpful to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction first.

2 1/3 can be written as an improper fraction as follows:

2 1/3 = (2 * 3 + 1) / 3 = 7/3

Now, we can divide 7/3 by 2/5:

(7/3) ÷ (2/5)

When dividing fractions, we can multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor:

(7/3) * (5/2)

Multiplying the numerators and denominators together:

= (7 * 5) / (3 * 2)

= 35/6

Therefore, 2 1/3 ÷ 2/5 is equal to 35/6.

Answer 10

simplify it or make a mixed number pls

Answer 11

To simplify the fraction 35/6, we can divide the numerator (35) by the denominator (6) as much as possible.

35 divided by 6 is equal to 5 with a remainder of 5.

So, the simplified fraction is 5 and 5/6.

Therefore, 35/6 can be simplified to the mixed number 5 5/6.

Answer 12

84 ÷ -7

Answer 13

To divide 84 by -7, we simply perform the division operation:

84 ÷ -7 = -12

Therefore, 84 ÷ -7 equals -12.

Answer 14

How many 4/3
pint servings are in 28/3
pints of milk?(1 point)
Responses

9 servings

5 servings

6 servings

7 servings

Answer 15

To solve this problem, we need to divide the given quantity of milk, which is 28/3 pints, by the serving size, which is 4/3 pints.

Dividing fractions involves multiplying the numerator by the reciprocal of the divisor.

So, (28/3) ÷ (4/3) = (28/3) * (3/4)

When multiplying fractions, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

= (28*3) / (3*4)

= 84 / 12

To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 12.

= (84 ÷ 12) / (12 ÷ 12)

= 7/1

Therefore, there are 7 servings of 4/3 pints in 28/3 pints of milk. In other words, the answer is 7 servings.

Answer 16

3/17 ÷ -2/3

Answer 17

To divide a fraction by another fraction, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

So, (3/17) ÷ (-2/3) = (3/17) * (-3/2)

When multiplying fractions, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

= (3 * -3) / (17 * 2)

= -9 / 34

Therefore, 3/17 ÷ -2/3 is equal to -9/34.
