Answer:

Beto will get to the school first.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Delia lives 3/4 mile from school and walks at a pace of

16 minutes per mile.

So Delia takes $\frac{3}{4} \times 16 =$ 12 minutes to reach school.

While Beto lives 3 1/2 miles from school and bikes at a pace of 3 minutes per mile.

So Beto takes $\frac{7}{2} \times 3 =$ 10.5 minutes to reach school.

Therefore, Beto will get to the school first.

Helpp!! Simplify : [( 4 1/6 + 2 1/3 ) ÷ 4 1/3 ] - 1 1/2

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{0}}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf{ [ (4 \frac{1}{6} + 2 \frac{1}{3} ) \div 4 \frac{1}{3}] - 1\frac{1}{2} }$

Convert the mixed numbers into improper fraction

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [ ( \frac{25}{6} + \frac{7}{3} ) \div \frac{13}{3}] - \frac{3}{2}}}$

Add the fractions : 25 / 6 and 7 / 3

While performing addition or subtraction of unlike fractions, you have to express the given fractions into equivalent fractions of common denominator and add or subtract as we do with like fraction.

To do so, first take the L.C.M of 6 and 3 which results to 6

$\longrightarrow\sf{ [( \frac{25 + 7 \times 2}{6} ) \div \frac{13}{3} ] - \frac{3}{2}}$

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [( \frac{25 + 14}{6} ) \div \frac{13}{3} ] - \frac{3}{2} }}$

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [ \frac{39}{6} \div \frac{13}{3}] - \frac{3}{2} }}$

Multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor.

Reciprocal of any number or fraction can be obtained by interchanging the position of numerator and denominator

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [ \frac{39}{6} \times \frac{3}{13} ] - \frac{3}{2}}}$

To multiply one fraction by another, multiply the numerators for the numerator and multiply the denominators for its denominator and reduce the fraction obtained after multiplication into lowest term

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [ \frac{39 \times 3}{6 \times 13} ] - \frac{3}{2}}}$

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [ \frac{117}{78} ] - \frac{3}{2} }}$

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{3}{2} - \frac{3}{2} }}$

While performing the addition or subtraction of like fractions , you just have to add or subtract the numerator respectively in which the denominator is retained same

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{3 - 3}{2} }}$

Subtract 3 from 3

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{0}{2}}}$

Divide 0 by 2

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{0}}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards!

the grocery store has a special deal on potato chips where if you buy 1 bag you get the second bag for 50% off. if the sales tax

Taya2010 [7]

The price for the three bags of chips is (3 x 2.50) - 2.50/2, because one of the bags will have 50% off. This makes $6.25. Divide this by 100 to find 1%, then multiply by 5 to find 5% — this tells you the amount of sales tax to add on. (6.25/100) x 5 = 0.31 to two decimal places. The final amount for the total purchase is 6.25 + 0.31 = $6.56.
