Let’s put these into one fraction each:
Biking:
= (12*5)/8 miles
= 60/8 miles
This can be reduced to,
= 15/2 miles
Swimming:
= (5*2)/3 miles
= 10/3 miles
Running:
= (6*3)/8 miles
= 18/8 miles
This can be reduced to,
= 9/4
Now we add all the distances up:
= (15/2) + (10/3) + (9/4)
Now we just can add the numerators and the denominators. We must find the lowest common factor (LCF) for our 3 denominators (2,3,4). Our LCF turns out to be 12. *Remember what we do to the denominator we must do to the numerator. So:
= (15/2) + (10/3) + (9/4)
= [(15*6)/12] + [(10*4)/12] + [(9*3)/12]
= (90/12) + (40/12) + (27/12)
= (157/12)
Therefore Aaron Ran 157/12 miles or 13.08 miles.
Hope this helps!
My answer Is The 4th Statement because a positive number is on the other side of the number line as the negative number and if it were just negative 5 and positive 5 it would be correct. I’m just trying the best I can to help you .
6+4/4 + 3/3 (substitute variables)
10/4 + 3/3 (add 6+4)
5/2 + 1 (Simplify fractions)
2 1/2 + 1 (Write improper fraction as proper fraction)
3 1/2 (add)
Answer: 3 1/2 (three and a half)
I am assuming you want to find r. r = -36
Independent is the gasoline amount and dependent is the mileage driven
