X and y
x=4/9 times y

y is bigger so
y-x=375
x=4/9y
y-4/9y=375
5/9y=375
times both sides by 9/5
y=675

the 2nd number is 675

The times for three swimmers are 101.85 seconds, 101.6 seconds, and 59.625 seconds. Which is the winning time? how many seconds

bija089 [108]

Hello there! the winning time is 59.625 seconds.

This is the person who completed the lowest amount of time, meaning they finished first. The others too longer so they finished later, meaning they didn't win.

I hope this was helpful and have a great day! :)
