Jim ran 12 1/2 miles in 2 1/2 hours. How many hours for 1 mile?
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

1/5 hours i.e 0.2 hours (which is 12 mins)

Step-by-step explanation:

First note that 12 1/2 = 12.5, and 2 1/2 = 2.5.

To work out how many hours it takes hime to drive one mile, we divide the number of hours (2.5) by the number of miles (12.5),

i.e 2.5 ÷ 12.5

which equals 1/5 = 0.2 hours (= 12 mins).

Reika [66]

Answer:

1/4 cup of bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6 cup of bananas = 2/3 cup of apples

1/6 cup of bananas = 4/6 cup of apples

1/24 (1/6 ÷ 4 since 4/6 cup of apples is 4 units and we need 1 unit) cup of bananas = 1/6 cup of apples

1 cup of apples = 1/4 (1/24 x 6 for 6 units) cup of bananas
