Answer: choice F) 12 & 1/2 square yards.</h3>
=====================================================
We'll use this formula
a & b/c = (a*c + b)/c
to convert from a mixed number to an improper fraction.
Let's convert the first mixed number to an improper fraction
a & b/c = (a*c + b)/c
3 & 3/4 = (3*4 + 3)/4
3 & 3/4 = 15/4
Repeat the same idea for the second mixed number as well
a & b/c = (a*c + b)/c
3 & 1/3 = (3*3 + 1)/3
3 & 1/3 = 10/3
--------------------
In short we have
- 3 & 3/4 = 15/4
- 3 & 1/3 = 10/3
Doing these conversions is useful to be able to multiply the values like so:
(15/4)*(10/3) = (15*10)/(4*3) = 150/12 = (6*25)/(6*2) = 25/2
Now use your calculator to find that 25/2 = 12.5
We can then say....
12.5 = 12 + 0.5 = 12 + (1/2) = 12 & 1/2
The answer is choice F) 12 & 1/2 square yards.
Answer: 348.8 miles on 16 gallons of gas
Step-by-step explanation:
Make the following proportion:
= 
Since the car consumes gas at the same rate and only the amount of gas is changed, these two fractions must be equivalent. If the rate at which the car consumes gas changes, it would be different.
Use basic algebraic skills and you should get 348.8 miles.
