1/16 or 0.5/8 of a mile

This is simple to figure out just reverse what they have already simplified. 8 can go into 16 twice. So....
8×2=16
7×2=14
7/8 also equals 14/16
14/16 to 15/16
So... Luke needed to walk 1/16 of a mile.

There are 5/6 jugs of water and 3/10 of the water are for the other runners. How many jugs of water is there

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

8/15 left

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

We want to perform subtraction operation on fractions

Total number of water= 5/6

we are told that 3/10 are for other runners

Hence the number of water left is

=5/6-3/10

=50-18/60

=32/60

=8/15

Hence there are 8/15 left

The volume of gas in a container at a constant temperature varies inversely as the pressure. If the volume is 32 cubic centimete

aleksklad [387]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The volume of gas in a container at a constant temperature varies inversely as the pressure.

$V_1=32\ cm^3\\\\P_1=8\ \text{pounds}\\\\V_2=60\ cm^3$

We need to find pressure $P_2$ .

According to question,

$\dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}$

Putting all the values

$P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\\P_2=\dfrac{8\times 32}{60}\\\\P_2=4.26\ \text{pounds}$

So, the pressure is 4.26 pounds.
