Divide each mile amount by the speed of the current (48/4=12 and 72/4=18) add the two numbers (12+18=30)  The speed of the boat is 30mph

1.How much taller Porter is than Henry, given that Porter is n inches tall and Henry is m inches tall. 2.How many times as tall
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Porter is n-m inches taller than Henry.

Porter is \frac{n}{m} times taller than henry.

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in height can be found using subtraction.

Since Porter is taller than Henry, we'll subtract away Henry's height from Porter's height. This will leave us with only the difference between the heights.

n = Porter's height

m = Henry's height

Difference in height is thus:

n-m

Answer: Porter is n-m inches taller than Henry.

To find out how many times taller Porter is than Henry, we can use division.

An example: if Porter was 200cm, and Henry was 100cm, Porter is obviously 2 times as tall.

If we divide Porter's height by Henry's height...

\frac{200}{100}=2

..we'll get 2. This is because Henry's height "fits in twice" in Porter's height. 100 fits twice in 200.

Using our values, n and m, we'll divide n by m.

\frac{n}{m}

Answer: Porter is \frac{n}{m} times taller than henry.
