Answer:

3:25 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between New Orleans and Houston is : 353 miles

Departure time of the bus : 12:20 pm

Speed of the bus: 60 mph

After 45 minutes, the bus will be at a distance of : 45/60 * 60 = 45 miles

Distance remaining to cover = 353-45 = 308 miles

Speed of the motorcycle = 72 mph

Relative speed = 60 + 72 = 132 mph

Time the two will meet = 308 / 132 = 7/3 hrs

7/3 hrs = 2 hrs 20 minutes

Time the two will meet is ;

12:20 pm + 45 minutes + 2 hrs 20 minutes

= 3:25 pm

How to solve which fraction is larger 10/13 or 11/14 or 14/15 or 17/18

alexandr402 [8]

To solve these type of problem you have to make the denominator the same or use the claculator.

let us do this problem by making the denominator the same.

$\frac{10}{13} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{11}{14} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{14}{15} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{17}{18} \\\\ \frac{10}{13}\times \frac{3780}{3780} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{11}{14} \times \frac{3510}{3510} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{14}{15} \times \frac{3276}{3276} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{17}{18} \times \frac{2730}{2730}$

$\frac{37800}{49140} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{38610}{49140} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{45864}{49140} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{46410}{49140}$

So, now. the one with the largest numerator is the largest fraction

In this case, $\frac{46410}{49140}$ is the largest which is equal to $\frac{17}{18}$ .

So, the largest fraction is $\frac{17}{18}$ .
