I agree with you on this problem. It is A. If that is the final answer, the negative exponent must be flipped in order to be positive. According to the equation, it is not positive so it is not a simpflied polynomial.
So, first of all, let's convert the fraction

into a decimal, which would be
0.375 (3 divided by 8)
The snail travels this far in 3 minutes. To find out how far it travels in nine minutes, we have to find out how many times 3 goes into 9.
9 / 3 = 3
Now. we simply multiply our
decimal by
three in order to get our answer!
0.375 x 3 = 1.125 inches
The answer is
1.125 inches!
10 1/3= 31/3
31/3= 93/9
11 5/9= 104/9
93/9 + 104/9 = 197/9
197/9= 21 8/9
your answer is 21 & 8/9
Good Luck
