Shelly ran 2 1/4 miles Lynne ran 3 1/8 Miles WhobRan Farther and by how much

Lynne ran farther and by 7/8 miles

You can tell Lynne ran further because she ran 3 whole miles while shelly only ran 2 whole miles. Now you have to subtract to see how much Lynne had ran more.

You found a common denominator between 8 and 4. 4 can turn into 8. so you multiply 4x2 and 1x2 to get a mixed number of 2 2/8

Now you have to turn 3 1/8 because you cannot subtract 2/8 from 1/8. You can turn the fraction into 2 9/8 because there are 8 pieces in a whole.

2 9/8 - 2 2/8 = 0 7/8

Hope this helps! :)

A machine makes 150 boxes in 15 minutes what is the rate

NemiM [27]

The rate of the machine is 10 boxes per min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

A machine can make 150 boxes in 15 min

To find the rate of the machine

Meaning to find the number of boxes machine it can make in 1 min

We will apply unitary method.

In 15 min it makes 150 boxes

In 1 min it makes (150÷15) boxes = 10 boxes

Hence the rate is 10 boxes per min.

What is the fraction and the percent of the shaded part in each square?

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Part a) The fraction is $\frac{5}{9}$

Part b) The percent is $55\frac{5}{9}\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a)

Find the fraction

we know that

To find the fraction of the shaded part in the square divide the number of shaded squares by the total number of squares

so

Let

x-------> the number of shaded squares

y-------> the total number of squares

f-------> the fraction of the shaded part

so

$f=\frac{x}{y}$

In this problem we have

$x=20\ shaded\ squares$

$y=36\ total\ squares$

substitutes

$f=\frac{20}{36}$

Simplify

$\frac{20}{36}=\frac{5}{9}$

Part b) Find the percent

To find the percent multiply the fraction by 100

so

$\frac{5}{9}*100=\frac{500}{9}\%$

convert to mixed number

$\frac{500}{9}=\frac{495}{9}+\frac{5}{9}=55\frac{5}{9}\%$

A sound wave has a frequency of 125 Hz and a speed 5000 m/s What is the wavelength of the wave

kipiarov [429]

The wave length of the sound with parameters frequency of 125 Hz and a speed 5000 m/s is 40 meters

<h3>Given Data</h3>

velocity = 5000 m/s

frequency = 125 Hz

wavelength = ??

We know that the relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength is given as

v = fλ ----------------------------1

substitute our given parameters

5000 = 125 * λ

Divide both sides by 125

λ = 5000/125

λ = 40 m

Hence the wave length of the sound is 40 meters
