Answer:

16.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the explanation. As Hye drinks 4/3 gallons of water in 11/2 hours, we have a constant rate. There are 12 thirds in 4, so we are trying to find how long it takes Hye to drink 12/3 gallon. In this case, 4/3x3=12/3, so we multiply 11/2 by 3 as well, which gives us 33/2 hours. 33/2 in decimal form is 16.5 hours. Hope it helps!

Jana ran the first 3 and a half miles of a 5 mile race in 1 3rd of an hour. what was her average rate, in mph, for the first par

Lisa [10]

Answer:

always try to draw a diagram first

Step-by-step explanation:

Jana ran The first 3.5 miles in 1/3 of an hour. remember the problem tells us that we want our answer in miles per hour or mph. so we have to set up our problem so that our units match in the end. The diagram above shows 3.5 mi over 1/3 hour. so we must divide 3.5 miles by 1/3 hour

note:

$3 \frac{1}{2} mi = \frac{7mi}{2}$

therefore

$\frac{7mi}{2} \: \div \: \frac{1hr}{3} =$

$\frac{7mi}{2} \times \frac{3}{1hr} = \frac{21mi}{2hr} = 10 \frac{1}{2} \frac{mi}{hr}$
