To add these fractions, first find the lowest common multiple of their denominators. The first few multiples of 3 are [3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30] and the first few multiples of 11 are [11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99]. The first few multiples they share are [33, 66, 99] making 33 the smallest multiple 3 and 11 share.

Next, convert the fractions so each denominator equals the lowest common multiple:

\( \frac{2 x 11}{3 x 11} \) + \( \frac{9 x 3}{11 x 3} \)

\( \frac{22}{33} \) + \( \frac{27}{33} \)

Now, because the fractions share a common denominator, you can add them:

\( \frac{22 + 27}{33} \) = \( \frac{49}{33} \) = 1\(\frac{16}{33}\)

The area of a circle is given by the formula A = πr² where r is the radius of the circle. The radius of a circle is its diameter divided by two so A = π(\( \frac{d}{2} \))². If the diameter of the logo increases by 55% the radius (and, consequently, the total area) increases by \( \frac{55\text{%}}{2} \) = 27\(\frac{1}{2}\)%

The ratio of football cards to baseball cards is 7:2 and the ratio of baseball cards to basketball cards is 7:1. To solve this problem, we need the baseball card side of each ratio to be equal so we need to rewrite the ratios in terms of a common number of baseball cards. (Think of this like finding the common denominator when adding fractions.) The ratio of football to baseball cards can also be written as 49:14 and the ratio of baseball cards to basketball cards as 14:2. So, the ratio of football cards to basketball cards is football:baseball, baseball:basketball or 49:14, 14:2 which reduces to 49:2.

The distributive property for division helps in solving expressions like \({b + c \over a}\). It specifies that the result of dividing a fraction with multiple terms in the numerator and one term in the denominator can be obtained by dividing each term individually and then totaling the results: \({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\). For example, \({a^3 + 6a^2 \over a^2} = {a^3 \over a^2} + {6a^2 \over a^2} = a + 6\).

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

Solving for time:

time = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \)
time = \( \frac{350mi}{70mph} \)
5 hours
