Answer: george, 3/8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

since 6 7/8 > 6 1/2, george jumped farther

to get the distance between them, subtract the two numbers

6 7/8 - 6 1/2 = 7/8 - 1/2 = 7/8 - 4/8 = 3/8

so george jumped farther by 3/8 feet

Two neighbors, wilma and betty, each have a swimming pool. both wilma's and betty's pools hold 9900 gallons of water. if wilma's

s2008m [1.1K]

To solve this problem we will start by calculating time needed for each of them to fill the pool.

We have formula:
Volume = rate * time
Or
time = volume / rate

Wilma:
time = 9900 / 900
time = 11h

Betty:
time = 9900 / 500
time = 19.8h

Now we substract these two numbers:
time_difference = 19.8 - 11 = 8.8h

Betty needs 8.8 hours more than Wilma to fill the pool.
