Answer: The quotient = 10

Step-by-step explanation: A quotient is the result you get when a number is used to divide another number. e . g.

6¹/₄ ÷ ⁵/₈ ( where 5/8 is the divisor )

First convert 6¹/₄ to improper fraction

= 25/4 ÷ 5/8

= 25/4 × 5/8

= 10

The quotient = 10.

NOTE: The 5/8 changed to 8/5 because when dividing fractions, immediately you applied the multiplication symbol, the denominator of the divisor becomes the numerator and vice versa

Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ be the miles in the circular park path, $t_{L}$ the time Louisa takes to finish and $t_{C}$ the time Calvin takes to finish both in hours.

Then $x$ , the longitude is equal to the velocity times the time used to finish. So

$x=5t_{L}$

$x=6t_{C}$

And the difference between Louisa's time and Calvin' time is 30 minutes, half an hour. So:

$t_{C}=t_{L}-0.5$

Three equations, three unknowns, the system can be solved.

Equalizing the equation with x :

$5t_{L}=6t_{C}$

In this last equation replace $t_{C}$ with the other equation and solve:

$5t_{L}=6(t_{L}-0.5)\\ 5t_{L}=6t_{L}-3\\ 3=6t_{L}-5t_{L}\\ 3=t_{L}\\ t_{L}=3$

With Louisa's time find x:

$x=5t_{L}\\ x=5(3)\\ x=15$
