We calculate both velocities:
upstream 8 miles in 2 hours = 4 miles / hour
downstream 8 miles in 1 hour = 8 miles / hour
ps -stream speed = 4 mph
ps + stream speed = 8 mph
Adding both equations
2 ps = 12 mph
paddling speed = 6 mph
stream speed = 2 mph
Answer:
Five out of fifteen or one out of three
Step-by-step explanation:
Add up all of the fruit in the basket - 15
Number of kiwi - 5
If you simplify 5/15 you get:
1/3
<h3>
Answer: (C) 8/30</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
There are 5+3 = 8 people in choir and running club. I added the values in the overlapped region of the circles "choir" and "running club".
This is out of 2+5+6+7+3+4+3 = 30 people total.
Divide the two results to form the fraction 8/30
Ideally we should reduce to get 4/15, but your teacher has chosen not to reduce.
