Answer to Question 1

1

Rationale 1: First rewrite the equation as 13/15 x 200/1  11/17. Next, invert the fraction 11/17 to make the new equation of 13/15 x 200/1 x 17/11. Then reduce the denominator 15 and numerator 200 by 5 so that the new equation is 13/3 x 40/1 x 17/11. Next multiply the numerators and the denominators to reach the fraction of 8840/33. Now divide the denominator 33 into 8840 to reach the number of 267 88/100. Now reduce the fraction of 88/100 by 4 to reach the fraction of 22/25. The final answer is 267 22/25.

Answer to Question 2

1

Rationale 1: Write 4 3/7 as the improper fraction of 23/5 and 2 5/8 as the improper fraction 21/8. Then set up the equation by inverting the second fraction or 23/5 x 8/21 = 184/105. Now reduce the fraction by dividing 105 into 184 or 1 75/100. Reduce the fraction of 75/100 further by 5 until the fraction  is reached. The answer is 1 .

Did you know?

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

Did you know?

Fatal fungal infections may be able to resist newer antifungal drugs. Globally, fungal infections are often fatal due to the lack of access to multiple antifungals, which may be required to be utilized in combination. Single antifungals may not be enough to stop a fungal infection from causing the death of a patient.
