Hello!
To compare the two, we must convert 5/8 to a decimal. We'll do that buy dividing the numerator by the denominator.
5 ÷ 8 = 0.625
Compare the two decimals.
0.625 vs. 0.580
So, 5/8 is obviously bigger than 0.58.
Answer:
Melinda will paint 5/8 part of a wall when Desiree has finished painting 1 wall.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that:
Melinda can paint 1/4 of a wall in the same time that Desiree can paint 2/5 of a wall.
Let 't' be the time taken by Melinda and Desiree to paint 1/4 and 2/5 of a wall respectively.
Now the time taken by Desiree to paint 1 wall will be:
2/5 of wall= t
1 wall= (5/2) t
Now in this time ( i.e. 5/2 t) the part of a wall painted by Melinda will be:
As Melinda takes-- t time to paint= 1/4 of a wall
5/2 t she will paint= (5/2)×(1/4) of a wall= (5/8) of a wall.
Hence Melinda will paint 5/8 part of a wall when Desiree has finished painting 1 wall.

Step-by-step explanation:
It would be helpful if you attached the table to solve this question
The answer is x > 4.5.
Explanation:
-24 > -6(x - 0.5)
-24 > -6x + 3
6x > 3 + 24
6x > 27
x > 27/6
x > 4.5
Hope this helps :)
