<u>Answer-</u>

<em>The necklace with 24 shells is longer than the necklace with 18 shells by 9 inches.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

Length of each dentalia shell = 1.5 inches

Length of the necklace made with 24 shells = 24×1.5 = 36 inches

Length of the necklace made with 18 shells = 18×1.5 = 27 inches

The necklace with 24 shells is longer than the necklace with 18 shells by the amount of ,

= 36 - 27 = 9 inches

∴ The necklace with 24 shells is longer than the necklace with 18 shells by 9 inches.

( ∵ As the numbers are already rounded off or natural numbers, so we don't have to round them off or use the compatible numbers.)

Jada was training for a race. She ran 1⅓ miles on Monday. On Tuesday, she only ran of ⅚ a mile. She decided to take the day off
Lorico [155]

Answer: 5 5/12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The following are the distance covered by Jada for the week.

Monday = 1 1/3 miles

Tuesday = 5/6 miles

Wednesday = 0

Thursday = 2 3/4 miles

Friday = 1 1/2 miles

Total distance for the week will be:

= 1 1/3 + 5/6 + 2 3/4 + 1 1/2

The lowest common multiple of 3,6,4 and 2 is 12. The fractions will then be

1 4/12 + 10/12 + 2 9/12 + 6/12

= 3 29/12

= 3 + 2 5/12

= 5 5/12

Jada ran 5 5/12 miles this week
