Answer:
1/4 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
If I want to walk from my house to a clothing store 3/4 of a mile away, this implies that the location is 0.75 miles from my home.
Now, if after walking 1/2 mile I decide to stop, I will have traveled 0.5 miles in total. In this way, when I get back on my way, I will have to travel 0.25 miles to reach my destination (0.75 - 0.50).
Therefore, since 1 divided by 4 equals 0.25, I have to walk 1/4 mile to reach my destination.
The answer is 5/4 in fraction form
1.25 in decimal form
Let the cost of one cup of hot chocolate be = x
Let the cost of one cup of hot tea be = y
Paul paid $ 25.50 for 3 cups of hot chocolate and 4 cups of tea.
Equation becomes =
...(1)
As given, the cost of each cup of tea was 2/3 the cost of each cup of hot chocolate.
.... (2)
Putting the value of y from (2) in (1)

=
=
=
x=4.5

=
y =3
Hence each cup of hot chocolate is $4.50
Each cup of tea is $3.
