One pound is 16oz. So you take 54 and minus it by 16 until you get something less that 16. Then you take how many times you subtracted it, and that is how many pounds. Then you take the "leftover" number and they you have your answer.
so Sarita used 3 pounds and 8 oz.
<span>The distance between two cities is ninety miles, and a woman drives from one city to the other at a rate of 45 mph. At what rate must she return if the total travel time is three hours and forty minutes?
1st leg DATA:
distance = 90 mi ; rate = 45 mph ; time = d/r = 2 hrs.
</span><span>2nd leg DATA:
distance = 90 mi ; time = [3 2/3 - 2] = 1 2/3 hrs; rate = 90/(5/3) = 54 mph
Ans: 54 mph</span>
Would it be 7
key word:Altogether meaning "add"
so 3.5 + 3.5 = 7.0 miles
lmk if im wrong
