1/6 of an advertising catalog page is dedicated for a drawing, 5/18 for an advertisement and 1/9 for another advertisement. The rest of the page is covered with a text. Does the text cover more than half of the page?

Respuesta :

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The part of the page that the text covers :

[tex]=1-(\frac{1}{6} +\frac{5}{18} +\frac{1}{9} )\\\\= 1-(\frac{3}{18} +\frac{5}{18} +\frac{2}{18} )\\\\=\frac{18}{18} -(\frac{3}{18} +\frac{5}{18} +\frac{2}{18} )\\\\=\frac{18}{18} -(\frac{10}{18})\\\\=\frac{8}{18}\\\\[/tex]

Since 8/18 < 9/18 = 1/2 then the text doesn’t cover the half
