Answer:

The train need to leave Portland at 03:27 am

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find out how long it takes the train to travel from Portland, Oregon, to Los Angeles, California

Remember that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

so

The time is equal to divide the distance by the speed

Let

s ---> the speed in miles per hour

d ---> the distance in miles

t ---> the time in hours

t=\frac{d}{s}

we have

d=963\ mi

s=60\ mi/h

substitute

t=\frac{963}{60}=16.05\ hours

step 2

Adds 30 minutes (time it takes to get from the train station to her aunt's house)

Remember that

30\ minutes=0.50\ hours

16.05+0.50=16.55\ hours

Convert to minutes

16.55\ h=16.55(60)\ min=993\ min

step 3

Remember that

8 p.m=20:00\ hrs

Convert to minutes

20(60)=1,200\ min

Subtract 993 minutes from 1,200 minutes

1,200-993=207\ min

Convert to hours+minutes

207\ min=207/60=3.45\ hours

0.45\ h=0.45(60)=27\ min

so

3\ h+27\ min

00:00 + 03:27=03:27\ am

therefore

The train need to leave Portland at 03:27 am

Click on the picture to look at some equivalent fractions. Look at them closely. Can you see a relationship of any kind between
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

when you simplify 2/4 it equals 1/2. Making them both equal the same.


2/3 when you double the numbers to make a bigger fraction you make 4/6.

2x2 = 4/ 3x3= /6 = 4/6


3/9 simplified is 1/3. Three goes into three one time, making the top one and three goes into 9 three times making the bottom 3.


When 9/12 is rounded down it is equivalent to 3/4
