The speed is defined as the ratio between the distance you cover and the time it takes you to cover that distance.

So, in this case, we have

s = \dfrac{3.5}{0.5} = \dfrac{28}{4} = \dfrac{56}{8} = 7\text{ mph}

to find james’ constant rate of speed, you can divide miles by hours (m/h)

28 miles / 4 hours = 7

56 miles / 8 hours = 7

3.5 is half of 7, so we know that’s true as well

this means james’ constant rate of speed would be 7 mph

g100num [7]

Mrs Kennedy is buying pencils for 315 students.

The pencils are sold in boxes of 10.

Therefore the number of pencils she needs to buy should be a multiple of 10, so that she can buy boxes of 10 pencils each.

number of students are 315 but 315 is not a multiple of 10

so we have to round off 315 to the nearest ten, that's 320.

so then she has to buy 320 pencils

number of boxes she needs - 320 / 10 = 32 boxes of pencils

she only needs pencils for 315 students so she will have 5 extra pencils

she will have to buy 32 boxes
