How do you convert 6/12 into a decimal

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:
Every fraction is a short way of writing a division problem. 
A fraction means (the top number) divided by (the bottom number). 
When you go ahead and  actually do the division, the quotient you get
is the decimal form of the fraction.

If you'll either pick up your pencil, or pick up your calculator, and divide  6  by  12 ,
you will get the decimal form of the fraction  6/12 .  If you don't get  0.5 then you
made a mistake and you should try again.  

Answer 2
Answer: simplify 6/12 to 1/2
and we can easily convert 1/2 into a decimal, it's just
0.5, or one half

What is equivalent to  1 / 12

Answers

The answer could be something of the sort like 2/24, because 1/12 can't be simplified, you would just keep multiplying both numbers until you get another fraction equal to 1/12
1/12 can equal:
2/24
3/36
4/48
5/60
6/72
7/84

Can someone please help me and teach me how to do this !!!!x+y= 11
-x=-y-9

O A. (10,1)
O B. (11,0)
O C. (9,2)
O D. (8, 3)

Answers

Answer:

A. ( 10, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x for x + y = 11.

x + y = 11

Subtract y from both sides.

x + y - 11 - y

Simplify.

x = 11 - y

Substitute x = 11 - y

[ - ( 11 - y ) = -y - 9 ]

Isolate y for - ( 11 - y ) = -y - 9.

- ( 11 - y  ) = -y - 9

Expand - ( 11 - y  )

Add 11 to both sides.

-11 + y + 11 = - y - 9 + 11

Simplify.

y = -y + 2

Add y to both sides.

y + y = -y + 2 + y

Simplify.

2y = 2

Divide both sides by 2.

(2y)/(2) =(2)/(2)

Simplify.

y = 1

Substitute y = 1.

x = 11 - 1

Subtract the numbers: 11 - 1

= 10

x = 10

y = 1

Answers

a. n - 3.4 = 2312.2

Show Work: 2312.2
                    +    3.4
                   ----------
             n =  2315.6

b. 1x = 5.12 

Show Work: 5.12 divided by 1 would equal to 5.12 (Note: Anything times or divided by 1 would give you the same factor that you multiplied.)
x = 5.12

c. m + 2 = 7.8

Show Work: 7.8
                   -   2
                 -------
            m =  7.6

d. 1.2 d = 6 

Show Work: 1.2 divided by 6 would equal to 5. 
d = 5
