Answer:

more elastic

Step-by-step explanation:

Elastic demand responds to demand of a product or services due to increases in price. From the question, the man's demand for air travel will be more elastic than his sister's. This is because, the quantity of services purchased by the man is highly greater(45% of his income) than that of his sisters's(whose is spending just only 2%).

Answer:

Conversion a mixed number 16 3

8

to a improper fraction: 16 3/8 = 16 3

8

= 16 · 8 + 3

8

= 128 + 3

8

= 131

8

To find new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 16 by the denominator 8. Whole number 16 equally 16 * 8

8

= 128

8

b) Add the answer from previous step 128 to the numerator 3. New numerator is 128 + 3 = 131

c) Write previous answer (new numerator 131) over the denominator 8.

Sixteen and three eighths is one hundred thirty-one eighths

Conversion a mixed number 9 5

8

to a improper fraction: 9 5/8 = 9 5

8

= 9 · 8 + 5

8

= 72 + 5

8

= 77

8

To find new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 9 by the denominator 8. Whole number 9 equally 9 * 8

8

= 72

8

b) Add the answer from previous step 72 to the numerator 5. New numerator is 72 + 5 = 77

c) Write previous answer (new numerator 77) over the denominator 8.

Nine and five eighths is seventy-seven eighths

Subtract: 131

8

- 77

8

= 131 - 77

8

= 54

8

= 2 · 27

2 · 4

= 27

4

The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(8, 8) = 8. Cancelling by a common factor of 2 gives 27

4

.

In words - one hundred thirty-one eighths minus seventy-seven eighths = twenty-seven quarters.
