QUESTION : \frac{3}{5} = \frac{24}{a}. What I would do is divide 24 by 3, and once you do that, your answer is 8. So that leads you to the conclusion that 8 is multiplied by 3 to get 24. Move down to the 5 and the a. If the numerator of the first fraction is multiplied by 8 to get the numerator of the second fraction, then you can sure as heck believe that the same applies to both denominators.

So I would say you multiply 5 with 8. 5 × 8 is 40, and so a = 40.

Fourteen more than three times a number is 2​
melomori [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

x = -4

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the following word problem which we can solve by breaking it down into parts and translating it into numerical values:

Fourteen more than three times a number is 2​.

1. Fourteen more than ---> + 14

2. three times a number ---> 3x (assuming the number to be x)

3. is 2 ---> = 2

So combining these, we get:

3x + 14 = 2

Solving this to get:

3x = 2 - 14

3x = -12

x = -12/3

x = -4

Snowcat [4.5K]

<u>35.12 miles </u><u>is the total number of minutes that it took krissy to run these three miles.</u>

What is a simple definition of time?

The measured or measurable period during which an action, process, or condition exists or continues : duration. b : a nonspatial continuum that is measured in terms of events which succeed one another from past through present to future.

Krissy ran three miles one morning she ran the first mile in time 1 = 11.74

Krissy ran three miles one morning she ran the first mile in time 2 = 11.26

Krissy ran three miles one morning she ran the first mile in time 3 = 12.12          

To get total time , we have to add all the time 1,2,3

Total time = Time1 + Time2 + Time3

                  = 11.74 + 11.26 + 12.12

Total Time =  35.12 <u>miles</u>
