4 0
3 and 1/2=3 and 2/4
3 and 2/4-9 and 3/4=3-9+2/4-3/4=-6-1/4=-6 and 1/4
now
divide by -2 and 1/2
negative divided by negative is positive
also
dividingn fractions, invert secondn one and multiply them
(a/b)/(c/d)=(a/b)(d/c)=(ad)/(bc)
so
convert to improper
6 and 1/4=6+1/4=24/4+1/4=25/4
2 and 1/2=2+1/2=4/2+1/2=5/2

(25/4)/(5/2)=(25/4)(2/5)=50/20=5/2=2.5

answer is D

There are two numbers whose sum is 64. The larger number subtracted from 4 times the smaller number gives 31. Find the numbers.
Pani-rosa [81]

There are two numbers whose sum is 64. The larger number subtracted from 4 times the smaller number gives 31. Then the numbers are 45 and 19

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that, There are two numbers whose sum is 64.  

Let the number be a and b in which a is bigger.

Then, a + b = 64 ------ eqn (1)

The larger number subtracted from 4 times the smaller number gives 31.  

4 x b – a = 31  

4b – a = 31 ----- eqn (2)

We have to find the numbers.

So, from eqn (2)

a = 4b – 31

Subatitute a in (1)

4b – 31 + b = 64

On solving we get

5b  = 64 + 31  

5b = 95

b = 19

So, b = 19, then eqn 1

a + 19 = 64

On simplification,

a = 64 – 19

a = 45  

Hence, the two numbers are 45 and 19
