Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
(1/8+3/12)×(11/6-1/2)
Using bodmas
Deal with the bracket first and it should start with the addition
1/8+3/12
Lcm of the two is 96
12+24/96
=36/96
Then move to the next bracket
11/6-1/2
Lcm is 6
11-3/6
=8/6
Bring the two answers together
36/96×8/6
=1/2

Answer: each of the students took 1/4 of an eraser home.
Step-by-step explanation:
On the last period our teacher had 1/2 of an eraser left. She gave it equally to 2 students. This means that the amount of eraser that each student takes home would be
(1/2)/2 = 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/4 of an eraser. Converting to decimal, it becomes 0.25 of an eraser.
Answer:he would arrive 0.2 miles faster.
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance = speed × time
Time = distance/speed
William cycles at a sped of 15 miles per hour. He cycles 12 miles from home to school. This means that the time it takes William to get to school from home would be
12/15 = 0.8 hours
If he increases his cycling speed by 5 miles per hour, his new speed becomes
15 + 5 = 20 miles per hour
Therefore, the new time it takes William to get to school from home would be
12/20 = 0.6 hours
The difference in both times is
0.8 - 0.6 = 0.2 hours
Therefore, he would arrive 0.2 miles faster.
