Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
<em>Student A</em>
d = 3/4 mile
t = 6 minutes
<em>Student B</em>
d = 1/2 mile
t = 5 minutes
Note
In both cases, the units are the same, so unit conversion is not necessary.
Solution
<em>Student A</em>
r = d / t
r is the rate of travel in miles / minute
r = 3/4 / 6
r = 3.4 // 6/1 The 1 is put below the 6 so it is easier to divide. Invert the bottom and multiply.
r = 3/4 * 1/6
r = 3/24
r = 1/8 miles / minute
<em>Student B</em>
r = d / t
r = 1/2 // 5 / 1 Turn the bottom fraction upside down and multiply
r = 1/2 * 1/5
r = 1/10
Question
which is bigger: 1/8 or 1/10?
1/8 = 0.125
1/10 = 0.1
1/8 is bigger by 0.025
Answer
Student A is faster by 0.025 miles / minute.
1/5=20%
4 gallons. 100%
x gallons. 20%
x=4•20/100
x=80/100
x=8/10
x=4/5
Mrs. Zirkle will use 4/5 gallons of milk.
I am not 100% sure.
Answer:
his salary after three months would be 1300
Step-by-step explanation:
10 percent of 1000 is a hundred and multiply that by 3, it would equal 300 and add that to the 1000.
<span>Inscribed angles on a diameter are right angles; the radius of a circle is perpendicular to the tangent where the radius intersects the circle.</span>
The first thing we need to distinguish is what 1 and 3/4 means. So, 3/4 = .75, so 1 and 3/4 = 1.75
So, we need 1.75 cups of flour for one batch, since you're making three batches, you need three times as much, so
1.75 * 3
5.25 is the answer, to put it back in to fractions,
5 and 1/4 cups of flour are needed.
