Hi there!

To solve this problem, first we need to convert everything into feet.

1.5 mi = 7920 ft

Since
7920 is greater than 3520,

Ashley lives closer to the school.

Hope this helps!

Elanso [62]
<span>To subtract 3 3/8 from 5 1/2,
by turning into fractions
</span><span>[(5x2)+1]/2 = 11/2
</span><span>[(3x8)+3]/8 = 27/8
</span><span> 11/2 - 27/8
</span>To subtract fractions, your denominator needs to have the same number. so multiply it by 4
 44/8 - 27/8 = (44-27)/8 = 17/8.
17 / 8 pounds or 2 and 1/8 because 17 / 8 = 2 remainder 1.

klasskru [66]

Answer:

1/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark: Not huge

Total number of Socks: 6 + 6 + 4 = 16

P(First Black Sock):  4/16 = 1/4

The second Sock needs to be discussed a bit. The number of black  socks has gone down to 1 and the total will always go down by 1.

Second Sock: 3 Black / 15 Total = 3/15 = 1/5

Combined Probability: 1/4 * 1/5 = 1/20

To get the percent of increase, we will follow these steps:
1- get the difference between the two numbers:
difference = 1.8 - 1.2 = 0.6
2- divide the difference from step one by the original number (the number before the increase) and then multiply the quotient by 100 to get the percent as follows:
% of increase = (0.6 / 1.2) * 100 = 50%

Based on the above calculations, the percent of increase in the amount of iron is 50%
