You wanna find a common denominator so put the problem like this
3 1/3.< You wanna take 3 (denominator)
And times it
By 5 then you wanna take the 5. - 2 2/5.< (deniminator) and times it by 3.
____ Your common denominator is 15
now it will look like this
3 1/15
-2 2/15
———-
Now subtract. You will need to borrow 1 from 3 since you cant subtract 2 by 1 so the 3 will become a 2 and the 1 will be come 11 and here you can subtract so this will be your answer.
2 11/15
-2 2/15
-———-
0 9/15
Thats your official answer 9/15 hope I helped :)
Answer:
a) 150-90 = h(15.25 -9.75)
b) 10.91
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Jennifer has 150 -90 = 60 less in savings than Eduardo, but she is earning 15.25 -9.75 = 5.50 more per hour. An equation she can use to figure her hours is ...
60 = 5.50h . . . . for h hours worked.
In 'raw' form, that might be ...
150 -90 = (15.25 -9.75)h
__
b) Solving the above equation, we get ...
60/5.50 = h ≈ 10.90909 ≈ 10.91 . . . hours
