In the question, they give you the formula for speed...
speed = distance / time
They also give you the distance and the time, so all we have to do is stick them into the equation...
speed = 3 2/3 Km / 1/3 hour
speed = 3 2/3 / 1/3
To divide the fractions, first we need to convert 3 2/3 into an improper fraction
3 2/3 = 11/3
now we multiply 11/3 x the reciprocal of the divisor 1/3. The reciprocal just means flip the numerator and denominator
speed = 11/3 x 3/1
speed = 33/3
speed = 11 Km/hour
Answer:
10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer is C because they have the same coefficient and variable on both sides (or something like that but its definitely c )
Answer:
The number of plums = 4
The number of peaches = 16
The number of nectarines = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of peaches be = x
Let the number of nectarines be = y
Let the number of plums be = z
A box of fruit has four times more peaches than plums. This means that
The number of peaches = 4 X the number of plums.
i.e x = 4z
The box has 3 fewer nectarines than plums. This means that
Number of nectarines = number of plums - 3
i.e y = z - 3
If the box contains 21 pieces of fruit, this means that if we sum up all the peaches, nectarines, and plums in the box, we will get 21.
Peaches + Nectarines + Plums = 21
4z + z-3 + z = 21
6z =21 +3
z = 24/6
z = 4
Therefore, the number of plums = 4
The number of peaches = 4 X 4 = 16
The number of nectarines = 4 -3 = 1
