Write the fraction 7/8 as an equivalent fraction with the given denominator 40

35/40

Step-by-step explanation:

7/8, with the given denominator 40

So how do we get 8, to turn into 40?

Simple multiplication.

8x5 = 40, and whatever we multiply times the denominator, we multiply for the numerator.

So

7x5 = 35

The answer should be 35/40

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180
