Rewrite the fractions 1/4 and 5/6 with a least common denominator

1/4 = 3/12 and 1/6 = 2/12

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two fractions with denominator 4 and 6.

To find the least common denominator, of 4 and 6.

Factorise 4 and 6.

4 = 2x2

6=2x3

Make the given fractions to equivalent fractions with common denominator 12.

1/4 = 1(3)/4(3) = 3/12 and

1/6 = 1(2)/6(2)= 2/12

Hence answer would be

3/12 and 2/12

Given: The rectangular prism is 50 centimeters by 20 centimeters by 18 centimeters.

Area of wrapping paper is 1 square meter.

To find: whether he can completely cover the package with wrapping paper

Solution:

Total surface area of the rectangular prism = 2(lb + bh +hl)

where l denotes length, b denotes breadth and h denotes height

Total surface area of the rectangular prism =

As ,

Total surface area of the rectangular prism =

As Dayson has of wrapping paper, he can completely cover the package with wrapping paper.
