With the given information we can only assume that the mother was 24 when they had a child because there's no information on if the mother or father is older or anything like that so therefore the father would be 24 when the child is born as well, making the father 48 when the child reaches 24.
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Blue tripp:
Hikes 2/3 miles every 1/2 hour
Yellow troop:
Hikes 3/4 miles every 1/3 hour
How long does it take each troop to walk 1 1/2 miles, 1/2 mile, and 3/4 mile?
To hike 1 1/2 miles
Blue troop:
2/3 miles = 1/2 hours
3/2 miles = x
2/3x = 3/4
x = 3/4 * 3/2
x = 9/8 = 1 1/8 hours
Yellow troop:
3/4 = 1/3 hours
3/2 = x
3/4x = 3/6
x = 3/6 * 4/3
x = 12/18 = 2/3 hours
To hike 1/2 mile :
Blue troop:
2/3 miles = 1/2 hours
1/2 miles = x
2/3x = 1/4
x = 1/4 * 3/2
x = 3/8 hours
Yellow troop:
3/4 = 1/3 hours
1/2 = x
3/4x = 1/6
x = 1/6 * 4/3
x = 4/18 = 2/9 hours
To hike 3/4 miles :
Blue troop:
2/3 miles = 1/2 hours
3/4 miles = x
2/3x = 3/8
x = 3/8 * 3/2
x = 9/16 hours
Yellow troop:
3/4 = 1/3 hours
3/4 = x
3/4x = 3/12
x = 1/4 * 4/3
x = 4/12
x = 1/3 hours
Answer:
252
Step-by-step explanation:
t50 = t1 + (n - 1)(d)
= 7 + (50 - 1) (5)
= 7 + (49)(5)
= 7 + 245
= 252
To solve this, all you have to do is add 1/5 and 1/3.
Well, you might be thinking, "But the denominators are not the same! Fractions have to have like denominators in order to be added together!" And you are right. So, all we have to do, is make them both have the same denominator. To do this, we have to multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same number to find an equivalent fraction.
For 1/5, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator by 3, to get 3/15.
Likewise, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 by 5, to get 5/15.
Now, you can easily add 3/15 and 5/15 because all you have to do is add the numerators, because the denominators are the same!
3/15+5/15=8/15, so she spends 8/15 hour on her math and social studies homework.
Hope I helped!
