7( \frac{1}{3} +  \frac{4}{5} )

=7( \frac{1(5)}{3(5)} +  \frac{4(3)}{5(3)} )

=7( \frac{5}{15} +  \frac{12}{15} )

=7( \frac{17}{15})

=\frac{7}{1} ( \frac{17}{15})

=\frac{119}{15}

= 7\frac{14}{15} ≈ 7.93

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>The Problem:</u>

  • 7 times as much as the sum of \frac{1}{3} and \frac{4}{5}
  • Write an expression to match, and then solve it.

<u>The Process:</u>

Here are some early expressions that need attention.

  • one-third is \boxed{\frac{1}{3}}
  • four-fifth is \boxed{\frac{4}{5}}
  • the sum of \frac{1}{3} \ and \ \frac{4}{5} is \boxed{\frac{1}{3} + \frac{4}{5}}

Let us write an expression to match for 7 times as much as the sum of \frac{1}{3} and \frac{4}{5}

\boxed{\boxed{ \ 7 \times \bigg(\frac{1}{3} + \frac{4}{5} \bigg) \ }}

Let us calculate the operation in parentheses at first.

\boxed{\frac{1}{3} + \frac{4}{5}}

A least common multiple of 3 and 5 is 15. We use to equate the denominator.

\boxed{\frac{1 \times 5}{3 \times 5} + \frac{4 \times 3}{5 \times 3}}

\boxed{\frac{5}{15} + \frac{12}{15}}

\boxed{\frac{17}{15}}

And now we solve the full expression.

\boxed{ \ = 7 \times \bigg(\frac{1}{3} + \frac{4}{5} \bigg) \ }

\boxed{ \ = 7 \times \frac{17}{15} \ }

We do not cross out 7 and 15 because they both cannot be divided.

\boxed{ \ = \frac{119}{15} \ }

\boxed{\boxed{ \ = \frac{119}{15} \ }}

In mixed fraction:

\boxed{ \ \frac{119}{15} = \ ? \ }

\boxed{ \ = \frac{105}{15} + \frac{14}{15} \ }

\boxed{ \ = 7 + \frac{14}{15} \ }

\boxed{\boxed{ \ = 7\frac{14}{15} \ }}

In decimal:

\boxed{ \ 7\frac{14}{15} = \ ? \ }

\boxed{ \ \frac{14}{15} = 0.93 \ }

\boxed{ \ = 7 + \frac{14}{15} \ }

\boxed{ \ = 7 + 0.93 \ }

\boxed{\boxed{ \ = 7.93 \ }}

\boxed{\boxed{ \ Thus, \ the \ result \ is \ \frac{119}{15} \ or \ 7\frac{14}{15} \ or \ 7.93 \ }}

<u>Quick Steps:</u>

\boxed{ \ = 3 \times \bigg(\frac{1}{3} + \frac{4}{5} \bigg) \ }

\boxed{ \ = 3 \times \bigg(\frac{5 + 12}{15} \bigg) \ }

\boxed{ \ = 3 \times \bigg(\frac{17}{15} \bigg) \ }

\boxed{\boxed{ \ = \frac{119}{15} \ }}

\boxed{\boxed{ \ = 7\frac{14}{15} \ }}

\boxed{\boxed{ \ = 7.93 \ }}

At 1:30 p.m., Tom leaves in his boat from a dock and heads south. He travels at a rate of 25 miles per hour. Ten minutes later,
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: she would catch up with Tom in 1 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the time it will take for Mary to catch up with Tom.

Tom leaves his boat from a dock and travels at a rate of 25 miles per hour.

Distance = speed × time

Distance travelled by Tom in t hours is

25 × t = 25t

Ten minutes later, Mary leaves the same dock in her speedboat and heads after Tom. Converting 10 minutes to hours, it becomes 10/60 hour

Time spent by Mary is (t - 10/60) hours. If she travels at a rate of 30 miles per hour, it means that the distance that she would travel in

(t - 10/60) hours is

30(t - 10/60)

= 30t - 5

By the time she catches up with Tom, they would have covered the same distance. It means that

25t = 30t - 5

30t - 25t = 5

5t = 5

t = 5/5 = 1 hour
