$\mathrm{\dfrac{ 3 }{ 4 }\:mile\:per\:one\:hour}$

$\mathrm{To\:find\:how\:far\:Jet's\:cousin\:can\:walk\:in\:3\:hours\:,\:we\:multiply\:\dfrac{ 3 }{ 4 }\:by\:3}$

$3 \times \dfrac{ 3 }{ 4 }$

$\mathrm{Express\: 3 \times \left( \dfrac{ 3 }{ 4 } \right)\:as\:a\:singe\:fraction}$

$\dfrac{ 3 \times 3 }{ 4 }$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:3\:and\:3\:to\:get\:9}$

$\dfrac{ 9 }{ 4 }$

$\mathrm{Convert\:\dfrac{ 9 }{ 4 }\:to\:a\:mixed\:number}$

$2 \dfrac{ 1 }{ 4 }$

$\mathrm{So\:she\:can\:walk\:2 \dfrac{ 1 }{ 4 }\:miles\:in\:3\:hours}$

$\mathrm{Since\:we\:want\:to\:find\:how\:many\:pounds\:both\:pumpkins\:weigh\:together,\:we\:have\:to\:add.}$

$5 \dfrac{ 3 }{ 4 } +3 \dfrac{ 3 }{ 8 }$

$\mathrm{Turn\:both\:mixed\:fractions\:into\:improper\:fractions}$

$\dfrac{ 23 }{ 4 } + \dfrac{ 27 }{ 8 }$

$\mathrm{Least\:common\:multiple\:of\:4\:and\:8\:is\:8}$

$\mathrm{Multiples\:of\:4}:\quad4,8,12,16,20$

$\mathrm{Multiples\:of\:8}:\quad8,16,24,32,40$

$\dfrac{ 23 }{ 4 } + \dfrac{ 27 }{ 8 }$

$\mathrm{Convert\: \dfrac{ 23 }{ 4 } \:and\: \dfrac{ 27 }{ 8 } \:to\:fractions\:with\:denominator\:8}$

$\dfrac{ 23 \times 2 }{ 4 \times 2 } + \dfrac{ 27 }{ 8 }$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$\dfrac{ 46 }{ 8 } + \dfrac{ 27 }{ 8 }$

$\mathrm{Since\: \dfrac{ 46 }{ 8 }\:and\:\dfrac{ 27 }{ 8 }\:have\:the\:same\:denominators,\:add\:them\:by\:adding\:their\:numerators}$

$\dfrac{ 46+27 }{ 8 }$

$\mathrm{Add\:46\:and\:27\:to\:get\:73}$

$\dfrac{ 73 }{ 8 }$

$\mathrm{Convert\:\dfrac{ 73 }{ 8 }\:to\:a\:mixed\:number}$

$9 \dfrac{ 1 }{ 8 }$

$\mathrm{Both\:pumpkins\:weighed\:9 \dfrac{ 1 }{ 8 }\:pounds\:all\:together}$

Since the question is asking us "How many more miles did Alyce travel than Jason", we have to subtract the miles Jason traveled from the miles Alyce traveled.

$29.193-14.593$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:14.593\:from\:29.193\:to\:get\:14.6}$

$14.6$

$\mathrm{Alyce\:traveled\:14.6\:more\:miles\:than\:Jason}$

For this question, we must find "10 is what percent of 40"

The equation for this is:

$\dfrac{ 10 }{ 40 } \times 100$

$\mathrm{Simplify\: \dfrac{ 10 }{ 40 } \:to\: \dfrac{ 1 }{ 4 } }$

$\dfrac{ 1 }{ 4 } \times 100$

$\mathrm{Multiply\: \dfrac{ 1 }{ 4 }\:and\:100\:to\:get\: \dfrac{ 100 }{ 4 } }$

$\dfrac{ 100 }{ 4 }$

$\mathrm{Divide\:100\:by\:4\:to\:get\:25}$

$25$

$\mathrm{So\:she\:recieved\:a\:25\%\:off\:discount}$

To check if this is correct, you can do the following below:

What is 25 percent (%) off $40?

Use the formula and replace the given values:

Amount Saved = Original Price x Discount % / 100. So,

Amount Saved = 40 x 25 / 100

Amount Saved = 1000 / 100

Amount Saved = $10

In other words, a 25% discount for an item with original price of $40 is equal to $10

Given that the calculated volume of the drum is 37.68 ft³ and it is 90% full, it implies that the current volume is calculated as:

$\mathrm{Current\:compacity} = 90 \% \times 37.68$

$\mathrm{Turn\:90\%\:into\:a\:decimal}$

$\mathrm{Current\:compacity} = 0.9 \times 37.68$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:0.9\:and\:37.68\:to\:get\:33.912}$

$33.912$

$\mathrm{The\:current\:compacity\:of\:the\:drum\:is\:33.912\:ft^{3} }$
