Answer:

It will take Malik 23.157 additional hours of work to save total of $320 into his savings. Which is $220 of what he needs to match Linda.

Malik will work total 23.157 + 10.526hrs = 33.683 to save $320

Linda will work 45.714 hrs to save $320.

Step-by-step explanation:

Linda   -  $320 / 7hr rate = 45.714 hours worked to earn this amount.

Find out how many hours Malik worked to save $100 first.

$100 current savings divided by his hourly rate of $9.50 = 10.526 hours worked.

To find out how many hours Malik must work to have $320 in his account, we subtract what he has now $100 from what he needs $220 to match with Linda's $320.  Next find how many hours it will take for Malik to save $220.

To get this take $220 / 9.5 hr rate which is what he gets paid per hour to get 23.157.

dsp73

Answer:

1\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Volume of Water = 5\frac{4}{6}

Volume drunk by James =1\frac{1}{3}

Volume drunk by Simon =\frac{2}{3}

Volume drunk by Matthew = 1\frac{1}{2}

Volume drunk by Gilbert =\frac{5}{6}

Total Volume Drunk (i.e. The Sum) = 1\frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3} + 1\frac{1}{2} +\frac{5}{6}=\frac{13}{3}

Volume of water Left = Total Volume of Water-Total Volume Drunk

= 5\frac{4}{6}-\frac{13}{3} =\frac{4}{3}=1\frac{1}{3}
