The least common denominator for 1/6 and 3/4 would be 12.

If you were going to convert both of your original fractions to have this common denominator, they would be 

1/6 = 2/12

3/4 = 9/12

Solution 1
The sample space is:
(1, 1); (1, 2) - sum of 3; (1, 3); (1, 4); (1, 5) - sum of 6; (1, 6);
(2, 1) - sum of 3; (2, 2); (2, 3); (2, 4) - sum of 6; (2, 5); (2, 6);
(3, 1); (3, 2); (3, 3) - sum of 6; (3, 4); (3, 5); (3, 6) - sum of 9;
(4, 1); (4, 2) - sum of 6; (4, 3); (4, 4); (4, 5) - sum of 9; (4, 6);
(5, 1) - sum of 6; (5, 2); (5, 3); (5, 4) - sum of 9; (5, 5); (5, 6);
(6, 1): (6, 2); (6, 3) - sum of 9; (6, 4); (6, 5); (6, 6)
Question
A bicycle normally sells for $237.99. It is now on sale for 25% off. As an employee, Baron is able to save an extra 10% off the sale price. What is the most reasonable estimate of the price Baron must pay to buy the bicycle?
Solution 1
First we have to find the total amount of savings on the bicycle, which we can find by adding together the sale discount and Baron's employee discount.

25% + 10% = 35%

Because this is an estimate, we are going to round the bicycle's price to $250.00.  

Because we know that Baron gets a 35% discount, we can assume that he is paying for 65% (0.65) of the bike's original price.

0.65 * 250 = $162.50

Therefore, a reasonable estimate of the price Baron must pay to buy the bicycle is $162.50.
Question
Which list of numbers is in order from least to greatest? 3/6 3/10 3/7
Solution 1
The answer would be 3/10, 3/7, 3/6. 
This is because if you convert each of these into percentages you can find the answer very easy. 3/6 is obviously exactly half so that would be 50%. 
3/10 is split into tenths so 3 of those would be 30%. 
3/7 needs to be divided so 3 divided by 7 is equal to 43%. 
The lowest is the 30% or the 3/10. 
The middle number would be 43% or 3/7. 
The highest number is 50% or 3/6. 
It says to order them from least to greatest so take the lowest which is 3/10 then put the middle number which is 3/7 then the highest which is 3/6. 
Your final answer is: 3/10, 3/7, 3/6. 
Solution 2
The list of numbers from least to greatest is 

3/10 , 3/7, 3/6

This is because the numerator stays the same across all three of these fractions.  However, the denominator is changing, and this proves to be a large difference.  

Think about it this way: If you cut a pie into ten pieces, then those slices are going to be smaller than if you cut the pie into seven or six pieces.

Question
a new parking lot is being built for a medical office. the expression representing the number of parking spots in the new lot is 15x/4-9 where x represents the number of parking lots in the first row. how many spots are in the parking lot if there are 32 parking spots in the first row?
Solution 1

Answer:

The number of spots in the parking lot if there are 32 parking spots in the first row =111.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a new parking lot is being built for a medical office.

We are given that

The expression representing the number of parking spots in the new lot =\frac{15x}{4}-9

Where x= The number of parking lots in the first row

We have to find number of spots in the parking lot when parking spots in the first row is 32.

The number of parking spots in the first row =x=32

Substitute the value of x in the given expression then we get

Number of spots in the parking lot =\frac{15\times 32}{4}-9

Number of spots in the parking lot=\frac{480}{4}-9

The number of spots in the parking lot=120-9

The number of spots in the parking lot=111.

Hence, the number of spots in the parking lot if there are 32 parking spots in the first row=111.

Solution 2
111 parking spots. 15x32 = 480 480 divided by 4 is 120 and 120 - 9 = 111
