First, you would have to combine 3 1/2 and 4 3/4 pounds. That would be 8 and 1/4 lbs. If she used all but 1 3/8 lbs, you would have to do 8 1/4 minus 1 3/8. That means she used 7 1/8 lbs of fruit.
The equation would be 3/ 12 + 4 3/4 = 8 1/4 - 1/38 = 7 1/8.
Answer: 15.7 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the time in the beginning (in minutes).
Given: The track team is trying to reduce their time for a relay race.
First they reduce their time by 2.1 minutes.
Then they are able to reduce that time by 10
If their final time is 3.96 minutes, then
x-t1-t2= 3.6
x= 3.6+ t1+ t2
x= 3.6+ 2.1+ 10
x= 15.7
Hence, their beginning time was 15.7 minutes.
The amount of space that a particular substance or object holds usually within a container.
Answer:
It looks like this problem is unsolvable, as the decimal only goes to the 10th place.. is there more to the problem?
You said that (1/2) / N = 1/3
Multiply each side by 'N' : (1/2) = 1/3 N
Multiply each side by 3 : 3/2 = N
or 1-1/2 = N .
