Answer:

The fraction of the entire mail each person address = 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

number of people addressing envelopes = 6

If they gave out 3/4 of an entire mailing address.

Then, the amount of mailing not addressed is:

= 1 - 3/4

= \dfrac{4-3}{4}

= 1/4

If 6 people shared 3/4 of an entire mailing to address evenly.

Then: each person gets:

=\dfrac{3}{4} \div 6

=\dfrac{3}{4} \times \dfrac{1}{ 6}

= 1/8

The fraction of the entire mail each person address = 1/8

lesya [120]

Answer:

First of all this question makes no complate sense if this was in real life. But the answer is: Allen is 23 years old and Jim woukd be 12 1/2 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 20+3=23. That's because it said in 3 years. Tthen we divide by 2 to find Jim's age. That's because it said that in three years, Allen would be twice as old as Jim.
