Ratios are like fractions in the way that you can simplify them if they have common factors.
we can simplify this ratio to
1:3
that means that the bigger part got 3 times the amount of the smaller part. The problem says that Evan got the smaller amount, so if we multiply the smaller amount by 3 we should and will get the bigger amount. It says that $420 is the smaller part.
420*3=1260
so the bigger amount of money is $1260
So, because Ricky got the bigger part of Mr. George's money, he must have received
$1260<span />
.4 is tenths .42 is hundredths and .422 is thousandths
Answer: The correct answer is the last choice.
In the first segment of the trip, the car goes from 0 to 2 hours and the line is moving up. Therefore, it traveled for 2 hours.
In the second segment, the line went straight horizontal for 1 hour. That means the distance didn't change, in other words it didn't move.
In the last segment, it moved up again for 2 hours.
The answer is: [C]: " ⁷/₆ " .

Note:
____________________________________
(5/3) - (1/2) = ? ;
____________________________________
The LCD (lowest common denominator) of "2 and 3" is "6" ;
So we need to rewrite EACH fraction in the problem as a fraction with "6" in the denominator ;
____________________________
(5/3) = (?/6) ? ; (6÷3=2) ; (5/3) = (5*2)/(3*2) = 10/6 ;
____________________________
(1/2) = (?/6) ? ; (6÷2=3) ; (1/2) = (1*3)/(2*3) = 3/6 ;
____________________________
Rewrite the problem: " (5/3) - (1/2) " ; as:
____________________________
10/6 - 3/6 ;
____________________________________________
10/6 - 3/6 = (10 - 3) / 6 = (7/6) = 1 ⅙ .
____________________________________________
The answer is: " ⁷/₆ " ; or, write as: " 1 ⅙ " ; which corresponds to:

Answer choice: [C]: " ⁷/₆ " .
