Answer:

Kevin will earn the money before than Philip

Philip needs at least 4 weeks

Kevin needs at least 3 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call x to the number of weeks

Philip works 6 hours each weekend, which means 6 hours per week, earning $8.75 per hour, which is equivalent to 6*8.75 = $52.5 per week

Philip has already saved $45. Then he needs the next number of weeks:

52.5*x + 45 = 225

x = (225 - 45)/52.5

x = 3.4

Philip needs at least 4 weeks

Kevin works 3 hours per day for 3 days a week, which means 9 hours per week, earning $7.5 per hour, which is equivalent to 9*7.5 = $67.5 per week

Kevin has already saved $30. Then he needs the next number of weeks:

67.5*x + 30 = 225

x = (225 - 30)/67.5

x = 2.9

Kevin needs at least 3 weeks

Using appropriate properties find: 2/3 × 3/4 + 3/7 × 3/4​
Viktor [21]

Answer:

\frac{23}{28}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2}{3}  \times  \frac{3}{4}  +  \frac{3}{7}  \times  \frac{3}{4}

=  >  \frac{3}{4} ( \frac{2}{3}  +  \frac{3}{7} )

=  >  \frac{3}{4}  \times  \frac{23}{21}

Reducing 3 from numerator and denominator,

=  >  \frac{23}{4 \times 7}  =  \frac{23}{28}
