<em><u>Question:</u></em>

How fast should the ant walk to go around the rectangle in 4 minutes if the sides are 12 inches and 16 inches

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

The ant should walk 14 inches per minute

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Dimensions of rectangle are 12 inches and 16 inches

<em><u>Find the perimeter of rectangle</u></em>

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

Perimeter = 2(12 + 16)

Perimeter = 2(28) = 56

Thus perimeter of rectangle is 56 inches

Time taken = 4 minutes

We have to find the speed at which ant covers 56 inches in 4 minutes

<em><u>The speed is given by formula:</u></em>

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

speed = \frac{56}{4} = 14

Thus the ant should walk 14 inches per minute

Whats the answer to these? (These are called Proper fractions.)
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

1: 7/10

2: 3/10

3: 4/8 (2/4 or 1/2 if you need to simplify it)

Step-by-step explanation:

1: Convert 2/5 to tenths by multiplying the denominator and numerator by two. 3/10 plus 4/10 is 7/10

2: Convert 4/5 and 1/2 to tenths.

4/5 is going to be 8/10, 1/2 is going to be 5/10.

Subtract 5/10 from 8/10 to get 3/10

3: Convert 1/4 to eighths to get 2/8. Then add 2/8 and 2/8 to get 4/8.

Michael is trying to write the algebraic expression for the following word phrase: the quotient of 6 and the sum of 5 and y? Mic
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Error: He multiplied 6 by 5 + y instead of divided 6 by 5 + y

Correct solution: 6 ÷ (5 + y)

Step-by-step explanation:

- <em>Lets revise some words of some operations in mathematics</em>

# The sum ⇒ (+) Add

# The difference ⇒ (-) subtract

# The product ⇒ (×) multiply

# The quotient (answer of division) ⇒ (÷) divide

* <em>Lets solve the problem</em>

- Michael is trying to write the algebraic expression for the following

 word phrase:

 the quotient of 6 and the sum of 5 and y

- <u><em>Lets explain that:</em></u> the quotient means the answer of division so he

 wants to divide a quantity by another one

∵ The first quantity is 6

∵ The second quantity is the sum of 5 and y

- He wants to divide 6 by (5 + y)

∴ The expression is 6 ÷ (5 + y)

* Error: He multiplied 6 by 5 + y instead of divided 6 by 5 + y

* Correct solution: 6 ÷ (5 + y)
