Answer:
4.75 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
We must introduce the symbols for inches and feet.
Here we will use, x' = x feet and x" = x inches
A high school track teams long jump record is 21 feet and
inches i.e. 21'2.25" this year.
Now, Tim's best long jump is 20 feet and
inches i.e. 20'9.5".
So, the difference between the record jump and Tim's best jump is
(21'2.25" - 20'9.5")
= (21'2.25" - 21') + (21' - 20'9.5")
= 2.25" + 2.5" {Since, 1' = 12" i.e. 21' = 20' 12"}
= 4.75"
Therefore, Tim has to jump 4.75 inches farther to break the record. (Answer)
Answer:
What we know is that 30% of the group have brown hair and are girls. It means that in the other 70% we have the boys with brown hair, the other boys and the other girls.
In the case all the girls have brown hair, the 70% remaining would be boys. So 70% of then would have brown hair. (0.7*0.7=0.49 -> 49% of the children would be brown hair) so 49% (boys) and 30% (girls) are more than 50%..
Now, let's suppouse that 90% of the group are girls. It means 10% are boys and 70% of that 10% (=7%) are the boys in the group that have brown hair. Now 7% + 30% of the children have brown hair, wich isn't more than the half.
We have explained with two extreme cases that the information is not enough for making a precise answer
