You are told that sprinklers run for the same amount of time. lets refer to this time as T.
you are told that 4 sprinkles run one at a time for 50 minutes total. that means that T should be 50/4 = 12.5 minutes = 12 minutes and 30 seconds
The answer is 1/7 and can be explained mathematically in the picture
Answer:
x=11
Step-by-step explanation:
M is the midpoint this means that we can set AM and BM equal to eachother, once this is done we can solve for x
9x-6=6x+27 (set equal to eachother)
9x=6x+33 (add 6)
3x=33 (subtract 6x)
x=11 (divide by 3)
To figure out what a fraction is as a decimal u would do the top divided by the bottom
For this fraction it would look like this,
8 divided by 9 which would get you 0.88888888888
So your decimal is 0.889
Its not 0.888 because with decimals since a typical decimal is show as 2-3 numbers it would be rounded up to keep it as 3 numbers or less. so this would be 0.889 or if that doesnt work 0.888 with a line over the last 8.
