Answer:Marvin burned more calories per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas went for a long hike and burned 657 calories in 2 1/2 hours. Converting 2 1/2 hours to improper fraction, it becomes 5/2 hours

This means that the amount of calories that Thomas burnt in 1 hour would be 657 × 2/5 = 262.8 calories per hour

Marvin decided to go for a bike ride and burned 1,035 calories in 3 1/4 hours. Converting 3 1/4 hours to improper fraction, it becomes 13/4 hours

This means that the amount of calories that Thomas burnt in 1 hour would be 1035 × 13/4 = 3363.75 calories per hour

Therefore, Marvin burns more calories per hour.

A survey of 14 middle school students showed the mean number of minutes
SashulF [63]
Hi :)

The mean is the average, and to take the average, they had to do this:

{students' minutes added together} ÷ 14 students = 133 minutes

This is basic pre-algebra; to find the total, we do the reverse of what they did. Since they divided by 14 to get 133, we're going to do the opposite. We're going to multiply 133 by 14 to get the total:

133 × 14 = 1862 minutes

Next question. The typical amount of time a student talked in a week was 133, and you're trying to find the typical amount of time in a day. There are 7 days in a week, so divide 133 by 7 to get the typical number of minutes in a day. (I won't do this for you-- you got this!)

Alright, so 19 students talked 171 minutes on average. Let's go back again and see what the total number of minutes were.

{total} ÷ 19 = 171
{total} = 171 × 19
{total} = 3249

But, hang on. They don't just want to know the total, they want to know the "mean number of minutes the additional five other students talked". That means we have to first subtract the 14 students' total from the 19 students' total to see what the difference is:

3249 - 1862 = 1387

So the five students added 1387 minutes to the average.

Divide 1387 by 5 to see the mean number of minutes per each of the five students.

You got this! Have fun!!
