Answer 1

Answer:

I'm pretty sure that the answers would go, Wrong, increased, 9 1/2 points, 6 5/8 points, dropped, 12 3/4 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why it would be wrong is because the amount of points lost was less than the total amount of points gained.

In week one and two the company gained 9 1/2 points and 6 5/8 points. When you add them together, you get 16 1/8 points.

In week three the company lost 12 3/4 points. If you multiply the fraction to change the denominator to 8, the mixed fraction becomes 12 6/8.

16 1/8 - 12 6/8 = 3 3/8

As you can see, there are still points left over.

In the fourth week, they ended up losing all of their points and then some more, but from my understanding it's just asking about the third week.

Hope that this helps!
