Distance=rate times time
distance=460
rate-wind=rate against wind
rate+wind=rate with wind
2.5=time aginst wind
2=time with wind
so
460=(rate-wind) times 2.5
and
460=(rate+wind) times 2

solve for rate
460=(rate-wind) times 2.5
divide both sides by 2.5
184=rate-wind

460=(rate+wind) times 2
divide by 2
230=rate+wind

we have
184=rate-wind
230=rate+wind
add them

184=rate-wind
<u>230=rate+wind +
</u>414=2rate+0wind
414=2rate
divide by 2
207=rate

answer is 207 miles per hour

What is 6/6 as a sum of fractions in three different ways
s2008m [1.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that 6/6 = 1, so we can use that knowledge to our advantage.

1/2 + 1/2 is one of them, because 1/2 + 1/2 = 2/2 = 1.

1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 is one of them, because they equal 4/4 = 1.

1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 is one of them, because they equal 3/3 = 1.
