Fractions are the part/whole. We can set this up to be...
3/5 = 756
756 x5/3 = 1260.
if she had 1260 to begin with and spent 756, she would have 504.00 left.
Hello!!
P (Passing a qualifying examination) = 3/4
P (Being appointed if he does pass) = 3/8
P (Recieve the job) = 3/4 × 3/8 = 9/24
Good luck :)
For this question, you need to understand how to divide fractions.First we line up our fractions appropriately:
4/9 ÷ 4/5 = ? (You want to divide 4/9 by 4/5)
4/9 × 5/4 = ? (Now we use the reciprocal of 4/5 and multiply instead of divide)
4 x 5 = 20 and 9 x 4 = 36. (Cross multiply.)
20/36 = 5/9. (Simplify to lowest terms.)
So, 4/9 divided by 4/5 is 5/9!But 5/9 is more than 4/9, so the answer is 0 :PCorrect me if I'm wrong.
I'm pretty sure the answer will be 6/10
Hope this helps, best of luck, terribly sorry if I'm wrong if I am my apologies

The fencing line x is the height of a rectangle triangle of base = y, hypothenuse of 9 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:
hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
9^2 = x^2 + y^2
x^2 = 81 - y^2
we can see that x is also the height of another rectangle triangle of base = 15 - y, hypothenuse of 12 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:
hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
12^2 = x^2 + (15 - y)^2
lets expand:
144 = x^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2
substitute x^2 from the first equation in the last:
144 = 81 - y^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2
144 = 81 + 225 - 30y
30y = -144 + 81 + 225
y = 5.4 m
substitute in the fence equation:
x^2 = 81 - y^2
x^2 = 81 - 5.4^2
x = 7.2 m that is the length of the fence
