You have to subtract 5/4 by 2/3 but in order to do that you must find a common denominator or least common multiple so the least common denominator of 4 and 3 is 12 so you have to multiply 4 by 3 and three by 4 to make both denominators 12 but you have to do the same thing on the top as you did the bottom so:
5/4*3= 15/12 and 2/3*4=8/12
Then 15/12-8/12 is 7/12 so Jim has to run 7/12 more
Problem:
The area of the patio of a relative's house is 20 square meters.
The width of the patio is 2 meters.
What is the length of the patio?
Solution:
The area is:
A = (w) * (l)
Where,
w: width
l: long
Clearing l we have:
l = A / w
Substituting values:
l = 20/2
l = 10 meters
To find the hypothenuse use Pythagorean theorem: 13²+5²=h²,
h=√13²+5²=13.93cm = hypothenuse.
