<span>So
let’s simplify the given situation.
We need to find out how much heavier is 91/8 lbs. compare to 2 5/6 lbs.
Since, it’s a combination of whole number and fraction; we cannot directly
subtract this given equation. We need to convert the two given number into a
fraction.
9 1/8 = 8 x 9 = 72 + 1 = 73, 73 is our numerator and 8 is our denominator
=> 73/8
2 5/6 = 6 x 2 = 12 + 5 = 17, 17 is our numerator and 6 is our denominator
=> 17/6
Now, we have 2 fractions with unlike denominator. In order to get a common
denominator, we have to find their least common factor.
=> <u>73</u> - <u>17 </u> = <u>73 x 6 </u> - <u>17 x 8 </u> <u>
</u> 8 6
8 x 6 6
x 8</span><span>
=> <u>438</u> – <u>136 </u> Now, we
have the same denominator, subtract</span><span>
48 48
=> <u>302 </u> or <u>151</u>
48 24
=> 6 <u>7</u>
24
Therefore 9 1/8 lbs. is 6 7/24 lbs. heavier than 2 5/6 lbs.</span>
Answer:

Answer:
Point of the flower garden R ( 11, 44 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Let´s call P ( 3, 14 ) The center of the herb garden, and Q ( 7 , 29 ) the birdbath point
Differences in coordinates of these two points are:
x axis 7 - 3 = 4
y axis 29 - 14 = 15
Then the point Q ( x , y ) will be at: Q ( 11, 44)
x axis x = 11 because 7 + 4 = 11 means that the coordinate 7 is just halfway way between coordinates (x) 3 and 11 ( 4 above 3, and 4 below 11)
Reasoning the same way we conclude y = 44 in this case 29 is just halfway between coordinates (y) 14 and 44 ( 15 above 14 and 15 below 44)
We can probe getting distance d₁ between P and Q and d₂ distance between Q and R as:
d₁ = √ (7-3)² + ( 29-14)²
d₁ = √ 16 + 225
d₂ = √ (11 - 7)² + ( 44 - 29)²
d₂ = √ 16 + 225
