On their way up the hill, Jack and Jill were stopped by their parents. It seems the two of them were trying to skip out on some

chores. They were told to mow the lawn, clean the kitchen, and sweep the leaves off the deck. If Jack can complete all the chores in 3 hours by himself and Jill takes only 2.25 hours to get all of it done on her own, how many minutes will it take for the two of them to get the work done together

Answer:

77.14 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jack's time = 3 hours

Jill's time = 2.25 hours = 2 1/4 = 9/4 hours

Combined time = x

Rates :

Jack = 1/3 ; jill = 1 / 2.25 = 1 / 9/4 = 4 /9

Combined rate = 1/x

Setting up the equation :

1/3 + 4/9 = 1/x

Lcm of 3 and 9 = 9

(3 + 4) / 9 = 1/x

7/9 = 1/x

Cross multiply :

7x = 9

x = 9/7 hours

x = (9/7)* 60

x = 77.14 minutes

Combined time = 77.14 minutes.

Find the mode of 7 , 3 , 2 , 5 , 0. Single choice.<br><br><br>2<br><br>0<br><br>No mode​
frez [133]

Answer:

No mode​

Step-by-step explanation:

The mode is the statistical method in which the most repetitive number should be considered

Like if we take an example

1,1, 2, 2, 2, 4, 4,4,4

So here the mode is 4 as 4 is repeated 4 times

But in the given situation there is no mode as every number is written single time
