45 pieces of candy in total
45/6 would be 7.5
so each friend gets 7 pieces of candy with 3 pieces of candy left (7 x 6=42 )
Part A: .85 + .50+ .15= 1.50
1.50 - .30= 1.20 liters left
Part B: I used the Substitution property because we knew how much juice was in the jar and we knew how much she drank But we did not know how much was left in the jar which we used the substitution property to figure out how much was left in the jar after she drank .30 liters.
I am not going to do this for you, but I will help. Basically your model could either be 47 high and 8 wide, or 8 high and 47 wide. Figure out the rest.
Answer:
68 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The total distance can be determined from the fractions.
<h3>Solution</h3>
Let d represent the total distance of the race.
The distance running is 1/2d. The distance swimming is 1/4d. The remaining distance is 17 miles.
Remaining = total distance - distance running - distance swimming
17 mi = d -1/2d -1/4d = 1/4d . . . . . . . . use known fractions
68 mi = d . . . . . . . multiply by 4
The total distance of the race is 68 miles.

<em>Additional comment</em>
This would be a very difficult race. A typical "iron man" race has a swimming distance under 2.5 miles, less than 1/10 of the distance running. The biking distance is typically about 4 times the running distance of "only" 26 miles. An iron man race can take about 17 hours to complete.
This race has a 17-mile swimming segment, which would take a fast swimmer on the order of 8 hours, by itself. (This is 2.7 times the length of a "marathon" swim.) Here, the running distance is 34 miles, about 30% longer than a marathon.
