Deja has two baskets of berries. One of the baskets has 3 3/8 pounds of berries and the other basket has 2 7/8 pounds of berries

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

(b) The number of pounds of berries each person would receive is $1\frac{5}{8}$ pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of berries in first basket = 3 3/8 pounds

Now, $3\frac{3}{8} = 3+\frac{3}{8} = 3 + 0.375 = 3.375$

So, the amount of berries in first basket = 3.375 pounds

The amount of berries in second basket = 2 7/8 pounds

Now, $2\frac{7}{8} = 2+\frac{7}{8} = 2 + 0.875 = 2.875$

So, the amount of berries in second basket = 2.875 pounds

Now, the total berries = Berries in ( First + Second) basket

= 3.375 pounds + 2.875 pounds

= 6.25 pounds

So, the number of pounds each person would have = $\frac{\textrm{Total weight of viable berries}}{\textrm{4}} = \frac{6.25}{4} = 1.5625$

Now, $1.5625 = 1 + 0.5625 = 1 + \frac{5625}{10000} = 1 + \frac{5}{8} = 1\frac{5}{8}$

So, the number of pounds of berries each person would receive is $1\frac{5}{8}$ pounds.

Andrew

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Let's say Bailey takes "b" days to paint it.

and Andrew takes "a" days to paint the same house.

now, Andrew is 6 times faster than Bailey, therefore, if Andrew takes "a" days to do it, Bailey takes then "6a" days, or b = 6a.

now, the year they worked together, they finished it in 7 days.

so, after 1 day then, they have only done 1/7 of the whole work.

and Andrew for one day, has done 1/a of the house, whilst Bailey has done 1/b of the house or 1/(6a).

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{Andrew's rate}}{\cfrac{1}{a}}+\stackrel{\textit{Bailey's rate}}{\cfrac{1}{b}}=\stackrel{\textit{1 day of work}}{\cfrac{1}{7}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{a}+\cfrac{1}{6a}=\cfrac{1}{7}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{let's multiply all by }\stackrel{LCD}{42a}\textit{ to toss the}\\
denominators
\end{array}$

$\bf 42a\left( \cfrac{1}{a}+\cfrac{1}{6a} \right)=42a\left( \cfrac{1}{7} \right)\implies 42+7=6a\implies \cfrac{49}{6}=a
\\\\\\
\stackrel{days}{8\frac{1}{6}}=a
\\\\\\
\textit{how many days will it take Bailey then?}\quad b=6a
\\\\\\
b=6\cdot \cfrac{49}{6}\implies b=\stackrel{days}{49}$
