C. 9:5
Because 36:20 keep simplifying it down and you will come out to 9:5
Answer:
74 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the total time
A sailboat started his journey at 6:30 am and reached his destination at 11:45 pm
so
from 6:30 am to 12:00 pm ----> there are 5 hours + 30 minutes=5.5 hours
from 12:00 pm to 11:45 pm ----> there are 11 hours + 45 minutes=11.75 hours
The total time is
5.5+11.75=17.25 hours
step 2
Find the average speed
we know that
The average speed is equal to divide the total distance by the total time
First you would have to either make everything pounds or everything grams. If you chance everything into grams it would be about 680, so the 1.5 pound box of raisens would be more.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the new fraction is 8/12 I will show how to find it.
Let's say the original denominator is x, then the numerator is x-4, so we have (x-4)/x.
Then it says f we add 4 to both, so now we have x/(x+4) this equals 8/12. Now, keep in mind -4 cannot be an answer because it would make x/(x+4) be divided by 0 which wouldn't exist.
Now we just use algebra.
x/(x+4) = 8/12
12x = 8(x+4)
12x = 8x + 32
4x = 32
x = 8
So the original fraction (x-4)/x = (8-4)/8 = 4/8
