I think it’s positive. As it gets heavier, the cost has a positive slope, or increases. I’m not absolutely sure though
4 + -1 = 3
Or -1 - 4 = -5
I would put 3.
10 9/10.... because 10 can be divided into 109 10 whole times with a remainder of 9 so you put the 9 over the original denominator which is 10 so 9 over 10
Solution:
<u>Convert the fractions into improper fractions and solve.</u>
- 9 1/2 ÷ 3 7/10
- => 19/2 ÷ 37/10
- => 19/2 x 10/37
- => 19 x 5/37
- => 95/37
<u>Convert the fraction into mixed fraction (Not required):</u>
- => 95/37 = 37/37 + 37/37 + 21/37
- => 1 + 1 + 21/37
- => 2 + 21/37
- => 2 21/37
The solution to the problem is 2 21/37.
