The terms don't have a common difference, but they do have a common ratio: 2. A sequence in which terms have a common ratio is a geometric sequence.

___

Differences are ...

2/3 -1/3 = 1/3

4/3 -2/3 = 2/3 . . . . not the same

Ratios are ...

(2/3)/(1/3) = 2

(4/3)/(2/3) = 2

3. (a)

Add the three totals.

Total sales for all three: $2030 + $1540 + $1800 = $5370

Now divide each person's sales by the total sales to find each person's fraction of the sales.

Lola: 2030/5370
Ahmed: 1540/5370
Tommy: 1800/5370

3. (b)

Multiply each fraction from part (a) by $100.

Lola: 2030/5370 * $100 = $37.80
Ahmed: 1540/5370 = $28.67
Tommy: 1800/5370 = $33.52

a construction crew built 4 1/2 miles of Road and 3 3/8 days. What is the unit rate in miles per day? Write your answer as a fra

sineoko [7]

The construction crew took $3\frac{3}{8}$ days to build $4\frac{1}{2}$ miles of road.

Therefore, in 1 day, the crew built $\frac{4\frac{1}{2} }{3\frac{3}{8} }$ miles of road

= $\frac{\frac{9}{2} }{\frac{27}{8} } =\frac{9}{2}times\frac{8}{27}=\frac{4}{3}$ miles of road

Thus, the required rate is $\frac{4}{3}$ miles or $1\frac{1}{3}$ miles per day.
