96÷2=48
63-48=15

Answer:

  • Sam must give Peter <u>10 stamps</u> so that Peter has twice as much as him.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although the exercise could be done using equations, I will teach you a much simpler method to find the answer to this type of exercise: add the stamps of Sam and Peter:

  • 96 + 63 = 159

Since one must have twice the other, you will have to divide the total value into 3 (then two parts will correspond to Peter and 1 one to Sam)

  •  159/3 = 53

With this value, <u>Sam must have only 53 stamps and give the rest to Peter, and since Sam has 63 stamps, he will have to give Peter 10, with which Peter will have 106 stamps, which is double 53</u>.

Susan runs 22 km in 2 hours and 45 minutes. What is her average speed in km an hour? Explain your answer please!
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

22km= 2 hours and 45 mins

To find speed: Distance/Time

22/2.75 = 8

Your answer 8km/h

Step-by-step explanation: When finding speed, the formula is always distance divided by time. 45 minutes of 60 minutes is 3/4 of an hour, and 3/4 is 0.75 is decimal. So you add the 2 + .75, and you'll get 2.75. After you convert the time, you begin dividing and you'll get your answer!
