Given:
October: 8 3/8 inches
September : 60% less rain fell than in October.

This means that only 40% rain fell in September based on the amount of rain that fell in October.

8 3/8 ⇒ (8*8)+3/8 = 67/8
40% is 4/10

67/8 * 4/10 = 268/80 = 3 28/80 or 3 7/20 or 3.35

28 ÷ 2 = 14
80 ÷ 2 = 40
14 ÷ 2 =   7
40 ÷ 2 = 20

In September 3 7/20 inches or 3.35 inches of rain fell.

If you would like to know how much rain fell in September, you can calculate this using the following steps:

60% of 8 3/8 in. = 60% * 8 3/8 = 60/100 * 67/8 = 201/40 = 5 1/40 in.

8 3/8 - 5 1/40 = 67/8 - 201/40 = 67/20 = 3 7/20 in.

The correct result would be 3 7/20 in.

X =-9

You have two x intercepts (8,0) and (-9,0)

You didn’t list any choices to pick from but it would be either if the ones above.

Arian is making bracelets. For each bracelet, it takes 1/10 of hour to pick out materials and 1/4 hour to braid it together. How
-Dominant- [34]
Change everything into 10ths as follows:

1/10 + 2.5/10 = 3.5/10 of an hour to make one bracelet. Then change to 20ths so the numerator is a whole number.
Divide your time available by the time it takes to make one.
