This is simple algebra :)
First, we can write the question as an algebraic equation.
Given that Doug spent 40 more hours than Laura, we can represent Laura as (x) and Doug as (x+40).
"Doug and Laura spent a combined 250 hours." So we can write this as
(x) + (x+40) = 250
Now simplify:
2x + 40 = 250
Solve x by subtracting 40 from both sides of the equation:
2x = 210
Therefore:
x = 210/2
= 105
So Laura (x) spent 105 hours!
2/8 divided by 1/4. Steps: 1. Division in math actually means multiplication. You just have to multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction (reciprocal= denominator and numerator are switched). 2. Do 2/8 times 4/1. 3. 2 times 4= 8 and 8 times 1= 8
4. Your answer would be 8/8 which equals 1. This is how you divide fractions
