Answer:

$6\frac{7}{8}\ miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Lil's distance in 2/5 hrs is 2 3/4hrs

-Let x be the distance ran in 1 hr.

#We equate and cross multiply to solve for x as follows:

$\frac{2}{5}\ hrs=2\frac{3}{4}\\1\ hr=x\\\\\therefore x=2\frac{3}{4}/\frac{2}{5}\\\\=6\frac{7}{8}\ miles$

Hence, Lil can run 6 7/8 miles in 1 hr.

Answer:

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}=-12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}$

Solution Steps:

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}$

$\mathrm{Combine\:the\:fractions\:}\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}:\quad -\frac{2}{5}$

$=\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a}=\frac{b}{c\:\cdot \:a}$

$=\frac{4}{5\left(\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}\right)}$

join $\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}:\quad -\frac{1}{15}$

$=\frac{4}{5\left(-\frac{1}{15}\right)}$

$\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(-a\right)=-a$

$=\frac{4}{-5\cdot \frac{1}{15}}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a}{-b}=-\frac{a}{b}$

$=-\frac{4}{5\cdot \frac{1}{15}}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:}5\cdot \frac{1}{15}\::\quad \frac{1}{3}$

$=-\frac{4}{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}\:\frac{4}{\frac{1}{3}}:\quad \frac{12}{1}$

$=-\frac{12}{1}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:\frac{a}{1}=a$

$=-12$

Therefore

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}=-12$

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Exact form: 37/8 Decimal form: 4.625 Mixed number form: 4 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

dd the whole numbers first.

4+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{8}

2 Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD) of \frac{1}{4},\frac{3}{8}

. In other words, find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 4,84,8.

LCD = 88

3 Make the denominators the same as the LCD.

4+\frac{1\times 2}{4\times 2}+\frac{3}{8}

4×2

1×2

4 Simplify. Denominators are now the same.

4+\frac{2}{8}+\frac{3}{8}

5 Join the denominators.

4+\frac{2+3}{8}

2+3

6 Simplify.

4\frac{5}{8}
