You need to set this up with a proportion and solve. 18/x-5 = 13.5/12.
cross multiply 13.5x-67.5=216
now solve for x
13.5x=283.5
x=21
the missing side is equal to 21-5, which is equal to16
Answer: Mary is correct.
9/8 is an improper fraction, so we change it to 1 1/8.
Mary lives less than a mile from school, so we know that Thad lives farther since he lives a mile and 1/8 away, and Mary only lives 6/10 away, which is less than a mile.
Glad I could help, and good luck!
