There are many ways to do this depending on the property you have to use:
If you use the distributive property, you need to distribute 3/4 to -10 and 2/5. Distribute means you will multiply it so your resulting equation will be this:

Before you can add, you need to first make them like terms because you cannot add unlike fractions. Get the LCD and form your new equation:

Now you can just add them together to get:

and then simplify your fraction:

or -
The whole fraction becomes negative because when you divide integers and of them is negative, the final answer will be negative.
It is 484 m^2 ,to my understanding!
<u>We are given:</u>Distance covered by the fastest man in 9 seconds = 100m
<u>To Find: </u>The distance covered in 1 min 2 seconds or 62 seconds
<u>Finding the Speed of the man:</u>
We know that:
speed = distance covered / time taken
Speed = 100 / 9 <em>(we are given that he travels 100 m in 9 seconds)</em>
Speed = 11.11 m/s
<u>Distance travelled in 62 seconds:</u>
We know that:
distance covered = speed * time
<em>replacing the value of speed and time</em>
Distance = 11.11 * 62
Distance = 688.82 m
