Answer:

Fred = 31

Natalie = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We have Natalie and Fred's whos age are unknown, we know that when added, their ages equal 46. While when multiplied with Natalie's age 4 times, their ages is 91.

Create two systems :

F = Fred

N = Natalie

F + N = 46

4N + F = 91

We can change the first equation to Natalie's age alone :

N = 46 - F

Now substitute this into the second equation :

4(46 - F) + F = 91

Distribute :

184 - 4F + F = 91

Subtract 184 from both sides :

-4F + F = -93

Add like terms :

-3F = -93

Divide -3 from both sides :

F = 31

Therefore, Fred is 31 years old. Now replace his age in the first equation :

31 + N = 46

46 - 31

15

Therefore, Natalie is 15 years old.

Answer:

2:18 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) First, count 3 hours from 10:47 AM. 10:47 - 11:47, 11:47 - 12:47, 12:47 - 1:47. We will end up with 1:47 PM.

2) Next, just add 31 minutes. In order to get 2:00 PM, we have to add 13 minutes, therefore, subtract 13 from 31, this is 18.

3) Finally, add 18 to 2:00, which is just 2:18 PM.

Hope this helps! :D

33.3% coverted into a decimle and fraction
valkas [14]
-- To change a percent into a decimal, move
the decimal point two places this way    <== .

                     33.3%  =  0.333 .

-- To change a percent into a fraction, remember
that the symbol  ' % '  means  ' /100 ' .

                     33.3 %  =  33.3/100 .

That fraction looks ugly, because it has a decimal in the numerator.
That's easy to fix.  Multiply top and bottom by  10, and you have

                                       333/1000 .
