Answer:
0.4,3/5,5/8,74%
Step-by-step explanation:
Change them all into decimals.
Get 0.4,0.625,0.74,0.6
Then reorder and see what their original values were
Ok so pete lays 10 more than jim per hour
pete and jim laid same amount of tiles
j=jim's rate
p=pete's rate
6j=5p
but pete lays 10 tile per hour faster so
p=10+j
sub
6j=5(10+j)
6j=50+5j
minus 5j both sides
j=50
jim can lay at 50 tiles per hour
Here is the problem simplified, todo this you
Simplify the radical by breaking the radicand up into a product of known factors, assuming positive real
It would be 5sqrt2
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 5^2 = c^2
25 + 25 = c^2
50 = c^2
c = sqrt 50
c = 5sqrt2
