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! :)

What is two and two fourths plus one third
kkurt [141]

Answer:

2 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

2 2/4 + 1/3

First, you have to make the bottoms of the fraction the same, by figuring out the lowest common denominator. In this case it would be 12. 4x3 = 12. 3x4 = 12.

Multiply the top number by the same number you multiplied the bottom by.

We multiplied the 4 by 3, so we would also multiply the 2 by 3 (which would be 6).

Do the same for the second fraction. 1x4 = 4.

Now we have 2 6/12 + 4/12. We add the top numbers together and we get 10/12.

Now we have to reduce the fractions. We can do this in this situation by just dividing the top and bottom numbers by 2.

2 5/6

Solve the system using elimination<br> 3x+y=27<br> -3x+4y=-42
padilas [110]

Hello :)

3x+y=27

-3x+4y= -42

+____________

(3x -3x) + (y+4y) = (27-42)

0 + 5y = -15

y = -3

Put "-3" for "y" in the system:

3x + y =27

3x -3=27

3x = 30

x = 10

Answer = x:10 y: -3

Have a nice day :)
