Respuesta :

Answer:

( I am assuming that these are all fractions)

1. 14 [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex]

2.  8

3. [tex]\frac{4}{15}[/tex]

4. 5 [tex]\frac{8}{11}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First you have to convert 15 into a fraction but it must have the same denominator causing the equation to look like 105/7 - 3/7= 102/7. But you cannot just leave the fraction like that it must be simplified 14 [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex]

2. Three-fifths of an hour is 36 minutes. You would next multiply 5 by 60 which would the hours into minutes 5 x 60 = 300. You would then divide 300 by 36 which would give you 8.3333333333, which I just simplified it to 8

3. In order for you to multiply a fraction you would first multiply the top then the bottom. 12 x 6= 72, 15 x 18= 270. The fraction would look like 72/270 which is simplified to [tex]\frac{4}{15}[/tex] .

4. First I changed the fractions into improper fractions causing the fraction to look like 36/8 x 14/11 (I got these answers by 8 by 4 then adding 4, then for the next fraction I multiplied 11 by 1 then added 3.) 36 x 14= 1224, 11 x 8= 88 the fraction would look like 1,224/88 you would simplify to 5 [tex]\frac{8}{11}[/tex]

Hope this helps

Please tell me if I made any mistakes I enjoy learning from them.
