Susan threw a softball 42 years on her first try and 51 1/3 yard on her second try. How much farther did she throw the softball

Andru [333]

Answer:

28 feet farther than 1st ball.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Susan threw a softball 42 yards on her first try and $51\frac{1}{3}$ yard on her second try.

To find second ball is how much farther from the 1st ball, we will subtract 42 yards from $51\frac{1}{3}$ yards.

$\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=51\frac{1}{3}\text{ yards}-42\text{ yards}$

$\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154}{3}\text{ yards}-42\text{ yards}$

Let us have a common denominator.

$\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154}{3}\text{ yards}-\frac{42*3}{3}\text{ yards}$

$\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154}{3}\text{ yards}-\frac{126}{3}\text{ yards}$

$\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154-126}{3}\text{ yards}$

$\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{28}{3}\text{ yards}$

$\text{1 yard}=3\text{ feet}$

$\frac{28}{3}\text{ yards}=\frac{28}{3}\times 3\text{ feet}$

$\frac{28}{3}\text{ yards}=28\text{ feet}$

Therefore, Susan thrown the second ball 28 feet farther from the 1st ball.
