Answer:
Michael is 21 years old while Jean is 7 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Micheal is three times as old as Jean, but in seven years he will be twice old as she will be, to determine how old are they both at this time, the following calculation must be performed:
M = 3J
M + 7 = 2J + 7
7 = 1/3
7 x 3 = 21
21 + 7 = 28
7 + 7 = 14
21 / 7 = 3
28 / 14 = 2
Therefore, Michael is 21 years old while Jean is 7 years old.
Answer:
540 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
100 pages = 50 mins
??? pages = 270 mins (converted 4hrs 30 mins to minutes)
Now you could cross multiply to find what the number of pages are:
100 pages x 270 mins = 50 mins x ??? pages
27000 = 50 mins x ??? pages
27000/50 = ??? pages
540 = ??? pages
So there are 540 pages in his favourite book.
Answer:
418 4/10
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this we subtract 450 7/10 from 869 1/10.
We must borrow a '1' from 869 1/10: 868 11/10
Now subtract 450 7/10 from 868 11/10:
418 4/10 (CHANGE IN ELEVATION)
This reduces to 418 2/5.
In plain and short, what's 2/3 of 7/8? well, is just their product.
