Since at the beginning, he had 5 1/4 pounds and used 3/5, we subtract the amount of pounds. We are then left with 93/20 pounds, which he then splits among 3 containers. Dividing by three, we then get 31/20 pounds in one aquarium, or 1 11/20 pounds in each aquarium or 1.55 pounds.

Answer:

4.75 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We must introduce the symbols for inches and feet.

Here we will use, x' = x feet and x" = x inches

A high school track teams long jump record is 21 feet and $2\dfrac{1}{4}$ inches i.e. 21'2.25" this year.

Now, Tim's best long jump is 20 feet and $9\dfrac{1}{2}$ inches i.e. 20'9.5".

So, the difference between the record jump and Tim's best jump is

(21'2.25" - 20'9.5")

= (21'2.25" - 21') + (21' - 20'9.5")

= 2.25" + 2.5" {Since, 1' = 12" i.e. 21' = 20' 12"}

= 4.75"

Therefore, Tim has to jump 4.75 inches farther to break the record. (Answer)
