Answer:
2:53
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe that you are subtracting times here, so have in mind that if the first number indicates hours, and the second number minutes, and you are asked to subtract more of one quantity (minutes for example) than what you have, you will need to convert some of the hours into minutes.
Recall that 1 hour equals 60 minutes.
in the difference 4:08 minus 1:15, you sre expected to subtract minutes from minutes and hours from hours. Now the number of minutes you need to subtract from 08 is 15 (larger than 08) so we need to convert 1 hour into minutes in the first expression, and then (with enough minutes to deal with), we can subtract:
4:08 is the same as 3:68 where we converted 1 hour to 60 minutes and added those 60 minutes to the existing 8 .
Now the difference can be performed:
3:68 - 1:15 = (3-1):(68-15) = 2:53
Answer:
2x^20
Step-by-step explanation:
Saying 3/4 * 3 is the same thing as saying 3/4 of 3. Imagine you have 3 pies, each cut into 4 slices. That would be 3 * 4 = 12 slices of pie, right?
So when there's 12 slices, that would be 4/4 of the pies, since all the pieces are there.
To find out how many pies we would have with 3/4 of the pie left, we just need to multiply the original equation.
3 * 3/4 = 2 1/4
The product of those two numbers lies between 2 and 3.
Hope that helped =)
