Answer: B) 2/5


Step-by-step explanation: Convert the mixed number  2 1/2 into an improper fraction first by multiplying the denominator  (2) by the whole number part  (2)and add the numerator  (1)  to get the new numerator. Place the new numerator  (5)  over the old denominator (2). And now inverse means opposite, so the reciprocal of 5/2 is 2/5. Flip It!!!


Finally: 5/2 inverse= 2/5

tekilochka [14]

Using the mean concept, it is found that on average, it takes him 11.9 seconds to run a 100 yard dash.

<h3>What is the mean?</h3>

The mean of a data-set is given by the <u>sum of all observations in the data-set divided by the number of observations</u>.

In this problem, the three observations are given by:

12.7 s, 11.2 s, 11.8 s.

Hence the mean is:

M = (12.7 + 11.2 + 11.8)/3 = 11.9.

On average, it takes him 11.9 seconds to run a 100 yard dash.

A total of 60 students in your cousin's school are taking Spanish class this year. This is 25% more than the number of students
alina1380 [7]
Since 25% is 1/4, you multiply 60 by 1/4 to get how many students took Spanish class last year. So, 60 times 1/4 is 60/4, which is 15. Then you subtract 15 from 60 to get 45. So, 45 students took Spanish class last year.
