terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and like two about colored balls

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

toys :3 Anyway...two sunflowers... give it a go first :) I have confidence in you :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so i have 5/11 and 4/10

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Yup... multiply?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

20/110 simplify into 4/20 which simplifies to 2/10 which simplifies to 1/5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 1/5

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

I don't think so... give it another go...

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

110 divided by 5 is 22, not 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahh thats where i messed up i hate numbers lol so 4/22 simplifies to 2 over 11

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

There you go :)

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Two carnations, then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats the answer?

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Yup... at least, for two sunflowers... what about two carnations?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay two carnations is 3/11 and 2/10 -> 6/110 -> 3/55

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Yeah... that's right :) See? You're getting good ^.^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
