Let the distance to his office be x, then
On monday, speed = x/20 miles per minutes = 3x miles per hour
On tuesday, speed = (3x + 15) miles per hour
Time = distance / speed
(20 - 6)/60 hours = x/(3x + 15) hours
7/30 = x/(3x + 15)
7(3x + 15) = 30x
21x + 105 = 30x
30x - 21x = 105
9x = 105
x = 105/9 = 11.7 miles

Therfore he travels an average of 11.7 miles to work.

Mr. Abraham is 36 years old. His wife is 6 years younger than him and their son is 24 years old younger than his wife. What is t
sesenic [268]
Hi!
We know that Mr. Abraham’s wife is 6 years younger than him, which is 36-6, which means his wife is 30 years old.

We also know that Mr A’s son is 24 years younger than his wife, which is 30-24, which is 6.

As of right now, we now know that:
Mr. A is 36
Mr. A’s wife is 30
Mr. A’s son is 6

It’s asking for the ratio of Him:Wife:Son, so 36:30:6.

BUT, it’s asking for simplest form, so divide each of those numbers by 6.

Your answer is: 6:5:1

I need help with dividing fractions
iVinArrow [24]

When you divide fractions, you want to use keep change flip.

You keep the 1st fraction, change the division sign into a multiplication sign, then flip the last fraction.

Let’s use 3/4 ÷ 2/3

Keep 3/4 the same, change the division sign into a multiplication sign, and flip 2/3 so that it is 3/2

It’ll look like this

3/4 x 3/2

Now just multiply the numerators, 2 x 3, then multiply the demoninators, 4 x 2.

You get 6/8

Simplify this number and you get 3/4.

If you have any further questions feel free to ask.

Hope this helps.
