Sergio plans to drive 150 miles at a rate of 60 miles per hour. He figures that it will take 25 hours. Which is NOT a reason why

this conclusion is wrong?
A. If he's driving more than 60 miles, the drive would take longer than 1 hour.
B. He should have multiplied 150 by 60 instead of dividing.
C. When you divide 60 by 150, you get 25 but the unit is not hours.
D. In 25 of an hour, he would drive less than 60 miles.

Answer:

B. He should have multiplied 150 by 60 instead of dividing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance/time

Distance/time = speed

150/time = 60

time = 150/60

(Divide, not multiply)

time = 5/2

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a distance-rate-time problem, so we need to use the equation: d=rt, where d is the distance, r is the rate, and t is the time.

Here, we know that the total distance is 150, so d = 150. Also, we are given that Sergio's rate is 60 mph, so r = 60. Put these in:

d = rt

150 = 60t

To solve for t, we divide both sides by 60. Because we are dividing and not multiplying, we know that B is the only one that is incorrect.

Hope this helps!

Add or subtract. Express simplest form 1 2/5 - (-1 2/15
Elenna [48]
Its 2 8/15 Conversion a mixed number 1 2
5
to a improper fraction: 1 2/5 = 1 2
5
= 1 · 5 + 2
5
= 5 + 2
5
= 7
5


To find new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number 1 by the denominator 5. Whole number 1 equally 1 * 5
5
= 5
5

b) Add the answer from previous step 5 to the numerator 2. New numerator is 5 + 2 = 7
c) Write previous answer (new numerator 7) over the denominator 5.

One and two fifths is seven fifths
Conversion a mixed number -1 2
15
to a improper fraction: -1 2/15 = -1 2
15
= -1 · 15 + (-2)
15
= -15 + (-2)
15
= -17
15


To find new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number -1 by the denominator 15. Whole number -1 equally -1 * 15
15
= -15
15

b) Add the answer from previous step -15 to the numerator 2. New numerator is -15 + 2 = -13
c) Write previous answer (new numerator -13) over the denominator 15.

Minus one and two fifteenths is minus thirteen fifteenth
Subtract: 7
5
- (-17
15
) = 7 · 3
5 · 3
- (-17)
15
= 21
15
- (-17
15
) = 21 - (-17)
15
= 38
15

The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(5, 15) = 15. The fraction result cannot be further simplified by cancelling.
In words - seven fifths minus minus seventeen fifteenth = thirty-eight fifteenths.
