You can add 9.5 plus 9.5 and get 19.
Answer: 3/4
Step-by-step explanation: Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. In other words, we can change the divison sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction.
So here, 3/8 divided by 1/2 can be rewritten as 3/8 × 2/1.
Now we are simply multiplying fractions so we multiply across the numerators and we multiply across the denominators.
So we have 3 × 2 which is 6 and 8 × 1 which is 8. Since 6/8 is not in lowest terms, we divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 6 and 8 which is 2 and we get the equivalent fraction 3/4.
Therefore, 3/8 divided by 1/2 is 3/4.
C) $694.25
Why?
Because you want to times the interest by 2 (1 is for one year but u want to find the amount after two years) then you multiply the amount given to each bank separately so:
400*0.07 (7% which is 7/100) = 28
250*0.065 (6.5% which is 65/1000) = 16.25
Then u add the interests together:
28+16.25 = 44.25
Finally you add that to the amount you started with:
$650+$44.25= $694.25
The present age of Jane is 45 years old and present age of her sister is 9 years old
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let the present age of Jane be "x"
Let the present age of her sister be "y"
<em><u>Jane is 5 times older than her sister</u></em>
present age of Jane = 5(present age of her sister)
x = 5y ---------- eqn 1
<em><u>In 3 years, Jane’s sister will be 1/4 her age</u></em>
Age of sister after 3 years = 3 + y
Age of jane after 3 years = 3 + x
Age of sister after 3 years = 1/4(age of jane after 3 years)

Substitute eqn 1 in above equation

Substitute y = 9 in eqn 1
x = 5(9)
x = 45
Thus present age of Jane is 45 years old and present age of her sister is 9 years old
