Kareem runs 6 miles in 55 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would he run in 44 minutes?

1 answer:

6 0

Use an equation of proportions to solve this problem.

x 44 min
-------- = ------------
6 mi 55 min

Reduce this to x/6 = 1/11. Then 11x = 6, and x = 11/6 miles, or 1 5/6 miles.

55x = 264 => 4.8 miles in 44 minutes.

There are 32 students in a class. Of the class, 3/8 of the students bring their own lunches. How many students bring their lunch

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The number of students that bring their lunches is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of students that bring their lunches

y -----> the total number of students in a class

we know that

The number of students that bring their lunches divided by the total number of students in a class must be equal to 3/8

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{3}{8}$

$x=\frac{3}{8}y$ -----> equation A

$y=32$ -----> equation B

substitute the value of y in equation A and solve for x

$x=\frac{3}{8}(32)$

$x=12$

therefore

The number of students that bring their lunches is 12
