If he drains 1/8 of a gallon in 1/2, the amount he will drain in one hour is twice as much as 1/8.

Mateo will drain 2/8 (simplified: 1/4) of a gallon in one hour.

Just multiply numerator and denominator of the given rate by 2:

2(1/8) gallon        1/4 gallon
-----------------  =  ---------------- = 1/4 gallon per hour
2(1/2) hour)              1 hour

Write 5 5/8 as a improper fraction<br> A. 33/8<br> B. 45/8<br> C. 40/8<br> D. 35/8
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

I believe this would be B

Step-by-step explanation:

The way I do improper fractions is called the 'boot'

It is where you take the whole number and the denominator and circle both of them so it kind of looks like a boot and you multiply those together.

So 5 * 8= 40 then you add your numerator to that which gets you 45, and you keep the denominator the same

So you end up with 45/8

Sorry if its a little confusing

Hope this helps :)
