If it takes 5 hours to do 2/3 of a job, how long will it take to complete a job?

I set it up as a ratio with hours on the top and the fraction of the job on the bottom.  It looks like this: 5/(2/3) / x/1, because 1 is the whole job if 2/3 is only a fraction of it.  Cross multiplying gives you 2/3x = 5. Solving for x gives you that it will take 7.5 hours to complete a whole job if it takes 5 hours to complete 2/3 of it.

Answer:

There is a whole range of speeds at which you are allowed to drive, not just one. In cases like this where there is more than one correct answer, we use inequalities, not equations, to represent the situation.

Inequalities are mathematical statements that define a range of values. They are easily recognizable because they contain the symbols <, ≤,>, or ≥.

Martha had 2.35 centimeters of her hair cut off. Neil had 2.53 centimeters cut. Who had more hair cut off. Explain
Anna11 [10]
Martha: 2.35 cm
Neil: 2.53 cm

Since both numbers have the same digit in the ones place, 2, look at the place next to the ones. This is called the tenths place.

There is a 3 in the tenths place and 5 in the tenths place. 5 is greater than 3, so Neil had more hair cut off.

2.53 cm is greater than 2.35 cm.
