Answer:

\frac{4}{1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

2/20 : 1/40

A). First re-write the ratio as follows;

(i) Change the ratio sign to division (÷). i.e

2/20 ÷ 1/40

(ii) Solve the expression by changing the division to multiplication(×). This also means you will need to swap the numerator and the denominator of the second term. i.e (1 / 40) becomes (40 / 1)

(2/20) × (40 / 1) = \frac{2}{20} × \frac{40}{1} = \frac{4}{1}

B). Now convert the result from above to unit rate. A unit rate is a rate in which the denominator has a value of 1.

So to convert   \frac{4}{1}  to unit rate, we keep simplifying until the denominator becomes 1.

And since the denominator is already 1, there is no need for further simplification.

Therefore, 2/20 : 1/40 to unit rate is  \frac{4}{1}

Answer:4/1

Step-by-step explanation:

I say this because you are supposed to divided it and the answer is 4 then you find the answer choice with a 1 as the denominator and it should say 4/1 and that is the correct answer.

Cyclist A leaves point X at 12 noon and travels at constant velocity in a straight path. Cyclist B leaves point X at 2 p.m. trav
fredd [130]

Answer:

37.5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The question might be trying to confuse the reader. Point (1) which states the difference in weight does not show any evidence on how it affects the speed of both cyclist. Point (2) show an important point where the distance traveled is 75 miles.

Cyclist B, who leave point X at 2pm overtook cyclist A at 4pm, showing that the time it took for B to overtook A is 2 hours

Speed = distance / time

= 75 miles / 2 hours

= 37.5 miles per hour

Ganezh [65]
If 32 is divided by 6, the answer is 5.3. However because she cannot hit part of a ball, the number would be 5. Therefore, she would hit 5 out of 32 balls.
