Help Doing Math Problems

Introduction to doing math help problems:

Mathematics is the study of magnitude, structure, space, and modify. Mathematicians search for examples, formulate new inferences, and found truth by accurate deduction from correctly chosen theorems and explanation.

Students are allowed to solve the mathematics problems such as homework problems, practice problems and also providing the formulas and definitions. Homework problems are used to develop the knowledge of solving problems themselves. It includes algebra variant, geometry and so on...

Example problems of doing math help problems:


Math help problem 1:

Writing the simple form: `25/5`

Solution:

Given `25/5`

Method 1:

First we are factoring the values of numerator and then factoring a denominator values.

Finally reduce the fraction by cancelling the common value.

Method 2:

Find the Greatest common divisor for the given fraction values and then simplifying them.

Therefore we can simply the given problem using the second method.

Greatest common divisor of 25, 5 = 5

So, `25/5=5/1`

Answer: 5

Math help problem 2:

Find the area of following triangle:

Solution:

Given base= 12 cm and height= 10 cm

We can find the area of triangle by using the following formula:

Area `A=` ` 1/2 (base * height) or 1/2bh`

Substitute the value of base and height into the above formula and then we get the final answer.

`Area A= 1/2(12*10)`

`= 1/2(120)`

`= 120/2`

` = 60`

Answer: 60 cm2

Math help problem 3:

If sixteen inches correspond to 44 centimeters, how many centimeters are there in twenty eight inches?

Solution:

By using the proportion concept,

Here inches/ centimeters: `16/44=28/x`

`16x= 44xx28` (cross multiplication)

Multiply 44 and 28

`16x=1232`

Divide by 16 on both sides.

`(16x)/16= 1232/16`

`x= 77`

Answer: 77 cm

Math help problem 4:

What is 12% of 1800 centimeters?

Solution:

Percentage means division of 100.

We can find the number with the 12% of 1800.

That is, 12% of 1800

`= 12/100xx1800`

Here we can divide the values 12 and 100 and then we get

`= 0.12xx1800`

Again we can multiply 0.12 with 1800. Then we get the final answer.

`= 216`

Answer: 216

Answer:

`9/5`
51.84 cm2
