Is 4/5 greater than or less than 2/3,show work to support the answer?
You need a common denominator so you can compare the fractions:
4/5 = 12/15
2/3 = 10/15
Now you can see that 4/5 is greater than 2/3
-------------------------
Simplify -2(2-5)divided by (-1) + 7?
-2(-3)/(-1+7) = 6/6 = 1
----------------------------------
How do you simplify -4 - check mark[49] + 5 squared?
-4 - sqrt(49) +5^2
= -4 - 7 + 25
= -11 + 25 = 14
