Answer: Jim practice for 1 17/56 hours on Tuesday more than on monday

Step-by-step explanation:

This week, Jim practiced the piano 1 1/8 hours on Monday. Converting 1 1/8 hours to improper fraction, it becomes 9/8 hours.

He practiced for 2 3/7 hours on Tuesday. Converting 2 3/7 hours to improper fraction, it becomes 17/7 hours. The difference between the number of hours for which he practiced on both days is

17/7 - 9/8 = 73/56 hours

Converting 73/56 hours to mixed fraction, it becomes 1 17/56 hours

Let's make these two fractions have a common denominator and an improper fraction:

1 1/8 = 9/8 =  63/56

2 3/7 = 17/7 = 136/56

63/56 + 136/56 = 199/56 = 3 31/56

So in total, he practiced 3 31/56 hours this week.

He practiced 1 17/56 hours longer on Tuesday than Monday.

A car cost $18,000, which is 9/10 of the cost of an apartment. A motorcycle cost 1/5 of the cost of the apartment or 4/5 of the
blagie [28]

Answer:

$1500

Step-by-step explanation:

let the cost of the apartment = x

Hence the cost of the car is \frac{9}{10} \times x

also given the cost of car=18000

Hence

18000= \frac{9x}{10}

x= \frac{18000 \times 10}{9}

x= 2000 \times 10

x= 20000

Motorcylce cost = \frac{1}{5} of Cost of apartment

= \frac{1}{5} \times 20000

= 4000

Also Motorcylce cost=\frac{4}{5} of the cost of 100 soccer balls.

Hence

4000= \frac{4}{5} x (cost of 100 soccer balls.)

(cost of 100 soccer balls.)= \frac{4000 \times 5}{4}

(cost of 100 soccer balls.)= 1000 \times 5

cost of 100 soccer balls= 5000

cost of 1 soccer balls = \frac{5000}{100}

cost of 1 soccer balls = 50

cost of 30 soccer balls = 50 x 30

cost of 30 soccer balls = 1500

Hence the cost of 30 balls is $1500
