Some kangaroos can cover 30 feet in a single jump if a kangaroo counts jump like that 150 times in a row how much farther wound
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Distance farther the Kangaroos need to go to cover a mile = 780 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Kangaroos cover 30 feet in a single jump.

Kangaroos can make such jumps 150 times in a row.

To find the distance farther it needs to go to cover a mile.

Solution:

Using unitary method to find distance covered by kangaroos in a row.

If in a single jump Kangaroos cover = 30 feet

So, in 150 jumps it will cover = 30\ ft \times 150 = 4500 feet

We know 1 mile = 5280 feet

Thus, distance farther the Kangaroo needs to go to cover a mile will be = 5280\ ft-4500\ ft = 780 feet

When is the reciprocal of a fraction a whole number? Plz explain
Sati [7]

The reciprocal of a fraction is only a whole number when
the numerator of the original fraction is ' 1 ' or a factor of
the denominator (original fraction is not in simplest form).

Any other time, the reciprocal of the fraction is another fraction.
(It'll be an improper fraction, and can be written as a mixed number.)


The reciprocal of a fraction is just the same fraction
turned upside down.

-- The reciprocal of  1/5  is  5/1  or just  5 .
   (Original numerator is ' 1 '.)

-- The reciprocal of  5/25  is  25/5  or just  5 .
    (Original fraction is not in simplest form.)

--  The reciprocal of  5/7  is  7/5 , or  1 and 2/5 .

Ksju [112]

Answer:

2/100, -9/2, 7, 11 1/4, 12.7, 41/2, -26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Points are -26,-12.7,-9/2,2/100,7,11 1/4,41/2

We have to arrange the number according to their distance from 0.

Simplifying Points

= -26, 12.7, -4.5, 0.02, 7, 11.25, 20.5

Now, arranging the number starting from the smallest distance from 0.

0.02, -4.5, 7, 11.25,12.7,20.5,-26

= 2/100, -9/2, 7, 11 1/4, 12.7, 41/2, -26.
