Solution:
<u>Note that:</u>
- Han's house = 450 m from school
- Lin's house = (450 - 135) from school
<u>Looking at the options, we can tell that the letter "z" represents Lin. </u>
- => z = (450 - 135)
- => z = 450 - 135
This option matches with Option D.
Option D is correct.
1 2/5 - (-3/5)
First, we're going to convert 1 2/5 into an improper fraction.
1 2/5 = 7/5
7/5 - (-3/5)
Subtracting a negative is the same as adding, so the problem will look like:
7/5 + 3/5
The denominators are the same, so we just add the numerators.
The answer is 10/5, or 2.
