Derek ran less than 6 miles. If the race is 6 miles, and he only ran 3/8, he ran less than a half of the race. If he didn't finish the race of 6 miles, he couldn't possibly have run 6 miles.

He took less than because 8/8 would be the whole, and 3/8 is less than 8/8, or 1 whole.
Glad I could help, and good luck! :)

Oh I get this.
So what you have to do is leave the same denominator and just count. Once a fraction has the same numerator and denominator that means it is a whole number.

X divided by 6/7 = 3 and 2/5
Rom4ik [11]
X / 6/7 is 3 2/5. First, concert the numbers to decimals for simplicity sake, and you get x/.857 = 3.4. Multiply both sides by .857 to get x alone and you get x ≈ 2.9143

The solution to -3(2 - 5x) = 3x + 12 is<br> 1. -2.25<br> 2. -1.625<br> 3. 1.5<br> 4. 3
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

i am not certain but this is how I got it

First distribute which gives you the -3 with 2 I switched them around so I did -3(-5x+2) and you will get 15x-6

Then the opposite of subtraction is addition so you add 6 to both sides so you add six to 12 and to 6 leaving you with 15x=3x+18 you then will subtract 3x from 15x and 3 leaving you with 12x=18 the divide the numbers

After you divide you get 3/2 then put it has a decimal and you get 1.5
