I think is 12 1/7 I'm not sure it's correct but I think it is
5 1/2 * 3 1/4
1 + 5 . 2/2 * 1 + 3 . 4/4 = 11/2 * 13/4 = 11 . 13/2 . 4 = 143/8 = 7 + 17 . 8/8 = 17 7/8
= 17 . 875
Detailed explanation of solution:
5 1/2 * 3 1/4
Transform the first mix number to improper fraction:
5 1/2 = 1 + 5 . 2/2 = 11/2
Transform the second mix number to improper fraction:
3 1/4 = 1 + 3. 4/4 = 13/4
Multiplying two fractions:
11/2 * 13/4 = 11 . 13/2 . 4 = 143/8
Since the numerator is greater than the denominator, We convert the improper fraction to mix fraction:
143/8 = 7 + 17.8/8
= 17 7/8 (Decimal: 17. 875)
Hope that helps!!!!!! ( Answer: 17 7/8, (Decimal: 17.875)
So if a number is 5 or greater you round up but if the number is 4 or less you round down so the number 6 is above five so you would round the 6 to 10 therefore making it 7.8 instead of 7.76

Given:
Sum of ages of brother and sister = 15
Product of their ages = 54
To find:
How old is the older one between the two of them?
Solution:
Let x be the age of brother and y be the age of sister.
Sum of ages of brother and sister = 15

...(i)
Product of their ages = 54

[Using (i)]


Splitting the middle term, we get




Using zero product property, we get


If
, then using (i), we get


If
, then using (i), we get


Therefore, the age of older one is 9, the age of younger one is 6 and the difference between their ages is 3.
