Punctuation should be enclosed within the final ___________ when giving dialogue

Conditional sentences may
express generalizations
Gerunds are words that look like
verbs, but function like nouns. Gerunds are sometimes used in the grammatical subject position of
sentences.
in any sentence, you should put a descriptive phrase
directly before of after the person or thing it is describing. Also remember that you may need to use a
comma after your phrase.
Pay attention to words like ______ and ________because they indicate that a specific point is being
made.
"certain"
"particularly"
A job is shared by 4 workers, W, X, Y, and Z. Worker W does 1/4 of the total hours. Worker X does 1/3
of the total hours. Worker Y does 1/6 of the total hours. What fraction represents the remaining
hours allocated to person Z?
The sum of the work from all four people must be equal to 100%, simplified to 1. In other words, they
make up the total hours by working together:
W+X+Y+Z=1
1/4 + 1/3 + 1/6 + Z = 1
First, find the lowest common denominator of the fractions. Remember that the denominator is the
number on the bottom of the fraction. All of the fractions must be converted into the same
denominator in order for you to solve the problem:
1/4 + 1/3 + 1/6 + Z = 1
We have 3, 4, and 6 as denominators in this problem.
3 x 4 = 12
2 x 6 = 12
So the lowest common denominator is 12.
