Make the denominator the same fraction and do for both numerator and denominator
Distance = speed x time
speed = distance/time
time = distance / speed
400m/36s = 11 1/9 m per second
let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then sum them up.

The equation that represents the given situation is required.The cost of the ticket after L losses is a. Initial cost of the ticket = $49.64Price decrease per game lost = $0.41Number of games lost = LMoney lost after L losses is So, the cost of the ticket after L losses would be the initial cost of the ticket minus the money lost after L losses.The cost of the ticket after L losses is a.
We know that 1 gallon is equal to 16 cups.
So 9 gallons is 144 cups.
each guest eats 2.5 cups, and there are 34 guests,
2.5 times 34 = 85, the amount eaten by the guests.
So to figure out whats left, subtract the eaten from the total.
144-85=59
59 is the answer.
