Answer:
The difference in the lengths of the two alligators = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let us make the lengths improper fractions, then we will find the difference from there.
Alligator 1:
Length =
To convert to improper fraction, multiply the denominator by the whole number, and then add the denominator [(12 × 14) + 5]
Alligator 2:
Length =
Now Let us find the difference between the lengths:
Therefore the difference in the lengths of the two alligators = 3
The correct question is
<span>A student ate 3/20 of all candies and another 1.2 lb. Another student ate 3/5 of the candies and the remaining 0.3 lb. Altogether, what weight of candies did they eat?</span>
let
x-------> total <span>weight of candies
we know that
x=(3/20)*x+1.2+(3/5)*x+0.3
</span>x=(3/20)*x+(3/5)*x+1.5----> multiply by 20----> 20x=3x+12x+30
20x=15x+30
20x-15x=30
5x=30
x=6 lb
the answer is
6 lb
