The person whose walk is longer is Erica.
Erica's walk is 8/9 times longer than Erica's walk.
<h3>Whose walks the longer distance?</h3>
In order to determine who walked the longer distance, we would convert the fractions to percentages.
3/4 becomes 75%
2/3 becomes 66.7%
Erica's percentage is smaller, thus, she walks a longer distance.
Jordan's walk is 8/9 times longer
(2/3 ÷3/4) (2/3 x 4/3 = 8/9)

Answer:
<h2> $24</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is not complete, here is the complete question
"<em>DeMarkus says that a store overcharged him on the price of the video game he bought. He thought that the price was marked 1/4 of the original price, but it was really 1/4 off the original price. He misread the advertisement. If the original price of the game was $48, what is the difference between the price that DeMarkus thought he should pay and the price that the store charged him?"</em>
<h2 /><h2>Solution</h2><h2>Take note of the words "of" and "off" </h2>
1/4 of $48= 0.25*48=$12
so he thought he should pay $12
1/4 off $48= $48-$12= $36
now the difference is
36-12= $24
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
c is hypotenuse and a and b are the legs
we need to find a^2 so
a^2 + 16^2 = 20^2
a^22 + 256 = 400
then subtract 256 from 400
a^2 = 144
square root 144
= 12
