The entire race is 1 full race.
One full race is 1.
He ran 3/8 of 1, so he ran 3/8.
He needs to run the rest of the race.
The rest is unknown, so we call it x.
When you add 3/8 to the unknown, you get the full race.
The equation is
x + 3/8 = 1
Change 1 to a denominator of 8.
x + 3/8 = 8/8
Subtract 3/8 from both sides.
x = 5/8
Answer: He still needs to run 5/8 of the race.
That would be 8. 1/4 goes into 1 4 times so it goes into 2 8 times.
Answer:
40320 different ways
Step-by-step explanation:
That problem is a permutation one
We have eight people to occupy one position in a team, without any constraint at all
So
Total number of events = P(8)
P (8) = 8!
P (8) = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1
P (8) = 40320 different ways
46 follows 45 and 46 is preceded with 47
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + x+4+x = 180
4x = 176
x = 44
A 88
B 48
C 44
