Lisa's penny bank is 1/10 full. After she adds 440 pennies, it is 3/5 full. How many pennies can Lisa's bank hold?

Mathematics

First lets change the fractions so they have common denominators:

3/5 = 6/10

The bank was 1/10, after adding the pennies it was 6/10

6/10 - 1/10 = 5/10 = 1/2

This means 400 pennies filled 1/2 the piggy bank.

There are 2 halves (1/2) to a whole ( full piggy bank).

The piggy bank can hold 400 x 2 = 800 pennies.

Max ran 50 meters in 10 seconds. molly ran 30 meters in 5 seconds. who ran faster
Stolb23 [73]
To compare their speed (rate), we need to have the same time or same distance to use as a reference.

Matt ran 50 meters per 10 seconds. Molly ran 30 meters per 5 seconds. If she ran for 5 more seconds, she would have gone 30 more meters, for 30 meters per 10 seconds. Thus, Molly went faster.

Alternately, you could calculate their speeds in meters per (one) second and compare. 50 meters per 10 seconds is 5 meters per second, and 30 meters per 5 seconds is 6 meters per second.

Suppose you invest a certain amount of money in account that earns 3% annual interest. You also invest that same amount + $2000
Greeley [361]
First account: $6500
Second account: $8500

Set x is amount of money in first account
=> x + 2000 is money in second account.
X*3% + (x+2000)*4% = 535
=> x = (53500 - 8000) / 7
X = 45500 / 7 = 6500
=> account #1 = x = 6500
Acc #2 = x + 2000 = 6500 + 2000 = 8500
