Step-by-step solution

Here's the solution for question 1:

Question 1: Solve for T in the equation 1T=145 of 21356+239×1211\frac{1}{T} = \frac{1\frac{4}{5} \text{ of } 2\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{5}{6} + \frac{2}{39} \times 1\frac{2}{11}}

  1. Simplify the numerator.

    First, convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and perform the multiplication ("of" means multiplication).
    145=1×5+45=951\frac{4}{5} = \frac{1 \times 5 + 4}{5} = \frac{9}{5}
    213=2×3+13=732\frac{1}{3} = \frac{2 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}
    Numerator:

    95×73=3×35×73=3×75=215\frac{9}{5} \times \frac{7}{3} = \frac{3 \times 3}{5} \times \frac{7}{3} = \frac{3 \times 7}{5} = \frac{21}{5}
  2. Simplify the denominator.

    First, perform the multiplication, then the addition.
    Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction:
    1211=1×11+211=13111\frac{2}{11} = \frac{1 \times 11 + 2}{11} = \frac{13}{11}
    Multiplication term:

    239×1311=23×13×1311=23×11=233\frac{2}{39} \times \frac{13}{11} = \frac{2}{3 \times 13} \times \frac{13}{11} = \frac{2}{3 \times 11} = \frac{2}{33}

    Now, add this to 56\frac{5}{6}:

    56+233\frac{5}{6} + \frac{2}{33}

    Find the least common multiple (LCM) of 6 and 33, which is 66.

    5×116×11+2×233×2=5566+466=5966\frac{5 \times 11}{6 \times 11} + \frac{2 \times 2}{33 \times 2} = \frac{55}{66} + \frac{4}{66} = \frac{59}{66}
  3. Combine the simplified numerator and denominator.

    Now substitute the simplified numerator and denominator back into the original equation:

    1T=2155966\frac{1}{T} = \frac{\frac{21}{5}}{\frac{59}{66}}

    To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal:

    1T=215×6659\frac{1}{T} = \frac{21}{5} \times \frac{66}{59} 1T=21×665×59\frac{1}{T} = \frac{21 \times 66}{5 \times 59} 1T=1386295\frac{1}{T} = \frac{1386}{295}
  4. Solve for T.

    To find T, take the reciprocal of both sides of the equation:

    T=2951386T = \frac{295}{1386}

    The value of T is:

    2951386\frac{295}{1386}
