First of all, you have to find the common difference between the numbers. That will be;
3/4-3/8=1 1/2-1 1/8
In the case of 1 1/2-1 1/8, the two whole numbers will subtract each other(1-1)
That will leave you with 1/2-1/8
3/4-3/8=1/2-1/8
The common denominator in both cases is 8
In 3/4-3/8
Divide 8 by 4 and multiply by 3 which will be 6
Divide 8 by 8 and multiply by 3. That will be 3
So you have; 6-3/8
Which is 3/8
If you do the same to 1/2-1/8, you will still end up with 3/8
Next, to find the fraction required to make 6 batches, you need to add 3/8 to the last term to the last term
1 1/2+3/8
3/2+3/8=12+3/8
15/8. This is the fifth batch. Add 3/8 again to get the sixth batch
15/8+3/8=15+3/8
18/8
Which is 9/4 when divided. The sixth batch is 9/4 or 2 1/4 in mixed fraction
Hope that helped. Have a nice day
The productivity of labor increases by 5% would cause the firm to increase hiring capital and decrease hiring of labor
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
A company can convert input data to output data. So, it gets divided the data into broad categories called production factors. Productivity variations, or more precisely the marginal products of labour, work in the same way as differences in real wages. Remember that marginal prices depend on both - real wages and the productivity.
If in case, productivity increases, perhaps because the company has increased its capital base, thereby marginal costs will decrease. Companies will produce more products and employ more employees. Conversely, if productivity drops, companies will produce less and destroy jobs.
A. 24in/min
b. 24x/min
c. 2
Teresa had more points because since the fractions are not able to use you can see that 6 is larger than 5
