Answer:

4 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

= (8 - 3) + (1/4 - 1/2)

= 5 + 1/4 - (1 x 2 over 2 x 2)

= 5 + 1/4 - 2/4

= 5 and (1/2 over 4)

= 5 + -1/4

= 4 3/4

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

$5\frac{22}{25}\ hours$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$4\frac{1}{5}\ hours=\frac{4*5+1}{5}=\frac{21}{5}\ hours$

$100\%+40\%=140\%=\frac{140}{100}$

Let

x ------> new battery life

The equation that represent this situation is

$x=\frac{140}{100} (\frac{21}{5})=\frac{2,940}{500}\ hours$

convert to mixed number

$\frac{2,940}{500}=\frac{2,500}{500}+\frac{440}{500}=5\frac{22}{25}\ hours$
