Abox contains six number cards. the six numbers form a pattern when ordered from least to greatest. joanna draws cards from the box 1/2 ,61/2, 11/4,1/4. what number cards are likely to be left in the bag

leftover cards:

Step-by-step explanation:

we can covert these directly into decimal forms (remember = 0.25 and = 0.5)

we can now easily arrange them from least to greatest

a pattern is still not coming out, but we needed to arrange them in order to understand the pattern

we can convert these into just fractions

And a pattern is indeed emerging here:

the denominators change alternatively between 2 and 4, and the numerator stays the same during this change. (see the first two fractions in the series)

originally all the six cards when aligned in ascending order should look like

Now you clearly see which ones are the missing ones: 5/2 and 13/4

we rewrite them as mixed fractions (as they originally printed on the cards)

These were the leftover cards from the bag!

the equivalent expression are always the hardest ones but you look at the gcf also

step-by-step explanation:

you can't solve x because it is 2 linear equation and you only have one equation
