The percent increase is: 35.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage increase is given by:

Percent\ increase=\frac{Increase}{Initial\ value}*100

Where

Increase=New\ quantity-old\ quantity\\

Given

Initial weight of puppy = 6.7 pounds

New weight of puppy = 9.38 pounds

Increase = New weight of Puppy - Initial weight of puppy

=9.38-6.7 =2.68

Now,

Percent\ increase\ in\ weight=\frac{Increase}{Initial\ weight}*100\\=\frac{2.38}{6.7}*100\\=0.355*100\\=35.5\%

The percent increase is: 35.5%

Convert 0.827 to a fraction or in simplest form
dangina [55]
<span>0.827 = 0.827 / 1


Numerator = 0.827 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 827
Denominator  = 1 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 1000

Numerator / Denominator = 827 / 1000

Simplifying our fraction

= 827/1000

= 827/1000</span>

Dustin has only nickels and quarters in his piggy bank. He has 49 coins total for a combination value of $8.85. How many of each
stepan [7]

Answer: he has 32 quarters and 17 nickels.

Step-by-step explanation:

The worth of a quarter is 25 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes

25/100 = $0.25

The worth of a nickel is 5 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes

5/100 = $0.05

Let x represent the number of quarters that he has in her wallet.

Let y represent the number of nickels that she has in her wallet.

He has 49 coins total. This means that

x + y = 49

the total value of the coins is $8.85. This means that

0.25x + 0.05y = 8.85 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 49 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.25(49 - y) + 0.05y = 8.85

12.25 - 0.25y + 0.05y = 8.85

- 0.25y + 0.05y = 8.85 - 12.25

0.2y = 3.4

y = 3.4/0.2

y = 17

x = 49 - y = 49 - 17

x = 32

It takes Dwight 1 1/3 hours to run the sunshine trail. Mike 3 1/5 hours to walk the same trail. How many times as long does it t
Anit [1.1K]

For this case we convert the mixed numbers to fractions:

Dwight:1 \frac {1} {3} = \frac {3 * 1 + 1} {3} = \frac {4} {3} = 1.33

Mike:3 \frac {1} {5} = \frac {5 * 3 + 1} {5} = \frac {16} {5} = 3.2

It is observed, that in fact, Mike takes more time to travel the road.

We subtract to know how much more time it takes Mike:

\frac {16} {5} - \frac {4} {3} = \frac {48-20} {15} = \frac {28} {15}

So, Mike takes \frac {28} {15} hours more than Dwight to walk the road.

Answer:

Mike takes\frac {28} {15}hours longer than Dwight to walk the road.
