Let x be the smallest odd number.
x+(x+2)+(x+4)=147
3x+6=147
x=47
therefore the smallest odd no. is 47.

Julia can finish a 20-mile bike ride in 1.2 hours. Katie can finish the same bike ride in 1.6 hours. How much faster does Julia

Nimfa-mama [501]

We know that, $speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

Julia can finish a 20-mile bike ride in 1.2 hours.

The distance Julia travels is 20 miles and the time she takes is 1.2 hours.

So, Julia's speed = $\frac{20}{1.2}$ = 16.67 mph

Katie can finish the same bike ride in 1.6 hours.

The distance Katie travels is 20 miles and the time she takes is 1.6 hours.

So, Katie's speed = $\frac{20}{1.6}$ = 12.5 mph

Now, to find how much faster Julia rides than Katie we subtract Katie's speed from Julia's speed.

So, 16.67 mph - 12.5 mph = 4.17 mph = 4.2 mph (approximately)

Thus, Julia rides 4.2 mph faster than Katie.
