Carrol Gardens has: 3/4 playground 2/5 hardtop Flatbush has: 2/5 playground 3/4 hard top
So now that you know that 2/5(8/20) is smallar that 3/4(14/20) You can say that Carrol Gardens has more hardtop than flat bush because 2/5(flatbush) is smaller than 3/4(Carrol Gardens)
Hi everyone! During yesterdays math class we were given a word problem about parks in New York City. The parks were Carol Gardens and Flatbush. People think that the children of New York City should get a place to play, so they decided to make some lots have a playground and some blacktop so that children were able to play blacktop games, like basketball for instance.
The image above is a representation of the Flatbush lot. 2/5 of the whole lot is the playground. 
Above is a representation of how much of the lot will be playground. Now 3/4 of that 2/5 will blacktop.
We're trying to find how many times 3/4 will fit into 2/5 evenly, since 2/5 of the lot is playground and 3/4 of that (2/5) is hardtop. To do so we divide 2/5 by 3/4.
One of the most easiest ways to compare fractions is to divide the numerator by the denominator, or finding the decimal. 8 divided by 15 is 0.53 repeated.
Above is a representation of Carol Gardens. As you can see it is identical to Flatbush. 3/4 of the whole lot is the playground.
2/5 of the playground (3/4 of the whole lot) is hardtop.
The darker shaded area is the hardtop. We're trying to find how many times 2/5 can fit into 3/4 evenly, because 3/4 of the lot is the playground and 2/5 of that is the hardtop. To do that you divide 3/4 by 2/5.
1.875 is 15/8 in decimal form.

Okay now for the second question. The question is 3 11/12+ 7 3/8.
Okay, for our next question 1 1/8 + 11/13=? Okay first we add up the whole numbers which is only 1. Next lets add the fractions 1/8 and 11/13, to add them up we need a common denominator or same size peices. So we multiply 8 by 13. Which is 104. Now the fractions are 13/104 + 88/104= 101/104 now we add the whole number and our answer is 1 101/104!
Okay for the final question! It is 2 4/9+ 5 1/2=??
Okay thats it guys! Jowella will do page 41, so if you need help on that go look at her post!
The 2nd question is 1/4 + 2/5.
Finally, the last question is 7/15 + 2/5.

Sorry, if I made a mistake. If I did just leave a comment.
(The 2's mean squared)
c2-a2=b2
10 2-6 2=b2
100-36=b2
64=b2
find the square root of 64 which is 8 and the way you can find that is by using a calculator.
8=b
(The 2's still stand for squared)
c2-a2=b2
50 2-30 2=b2
2500-900=b2
1600=b2
The square root of this is 40.
40=b
This is a video I found. It is also one of the videos Mr. Harbeck showed us last week.
The next scribe is Robin. If he did already, then I pick Richard.
Pythagoras is a Greek mathematician. He is a vegetarian. He is "UBBER"smart. He is known for the Pythagorean Theorem. No one found any evidence that he existed. He proved that the squares a, and b makes a bigger square which is square c.
Here is the third problem that I solved:
Here is another problem that Mr. H told us to solve.
Here is a video that my friends and I made. I hope that it will help you understand the Pythagorean Theorem.
