From the given information it is clear that the amount of time, or in other words the number of hours, h, required to wash c number of cars are related such that more the number of cars then more is the number of hours to wash those cars.

Thus, we have a relationship between h and c as:

h\propto c .................(relationship 1)

Now, we know that the number of hours is inversely proportional to the number of students. Thus we have:

h\propto \frac{1}{s} .................(relationship 2)

Thus combining the two relationships, (relationship 1) and (relationship 2), we get:

h\propto \frac{c}{s}

This is the complete relationship between all the three variables involved.

This can be converted into an equation by replacing the proportionality sign by the equal to sign and constant of proportionality (say K) as:

h=K\frac{c}{s}

What is 3/7 - 2/7 this is unlike factors
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

\frac{1}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they have the same denominator (the number on the bottom), you can just subtract the numerators (the numbers on the top). So 3-2 is 1. You always leave the denominator as it is, don't subtract it.
