Petri Dish A sees a double ever 10 minutes
Petri Dish B sees a double ever 6 minutes
Consequences
A doubles 60 / 10 = 6 times.
B doubles 60 / 6 = 10 times.
Solution
If you work best with numbers then suppose there are 100 bacteria in both dishes at the beginning
A = 100 * 2^6
B = 100 * 2^10
A will have 100 * 64 = 6400 bacteria growing inside A
B will have 100 * 1024 = 102400 bacteria growing inside B
B/A = 102400 / 6400 = 16
There are 16 times as many in B than in A. <<<< Answer
1. First find the LCD of the two fractions.
They share the denominator 6.
Turn 1/2 into a fraction with a denominator of 6.
2*3=6, so 1*3=3
3/6
Now add.
Leave denominators alone, but add numerators.
3+5=8
8/6
Now simplify.
Divide both by 2.
8/2=4
6/2=3
4/3 is your answer or 1 1/3
2. Multiply straight across.
3*2=6
4*7=28
6/28
Simplify
You get 3/14 as your answer.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Jim drank 2 and 4/5 orange juice
2and 4/5=14/5 orange juice
jack drank 1and 1/10 less than Jim= 11/10 less than Jim
I introduce the whole numbers into the fractions
we will convert the number 14/5 into a fraction that has the denominator 10, by multiplying by 2 both numerator and denominator
(14/5 )*2=28/10
Now we can find out how much juine Jack drank
28/10- 11/10= 17/10
so Jack drank 17/10 orange juice , the fraction can be written also as
1 and 7/10
