First you make them mixed numbers:
9/2 ÷ 19/8
Then you flip the second fraction around
9/2 ÷ 8/19
Then you change ÷ to ×
9/2 × 8/19
And then multiply across!
72/38 = 1 34/38 = 1 17/19 (the final answer)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x = 8°
y = 21°
Step-by-step explanation:
27 + 3y = 90
3y = 63
y = 21°
x + 8x + 18 = 90
9x = 72
x = 8°
Answer:
3 7/10 = 37/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 4 with (2x-5)
8x-20+15=11
add 20 both sides
8x+15=31
subtract 15 both sides
8x=16
divide both sides by the x (8)
x=2
A=1/10, b=1/12, c=1/15 (these are the rates for each worker...)
1.)
2(1/10)+4(1/12)+t/15=1
1/5+1/3+t/15=1
(3+5+t)/15=1
3+5+t=15
8+t=15
t=7
So it would take c 7 hours to finish the job.
2.)
1/40-1/60
(3-2)/120
1/120
The drain rate is 1/60. So you will need to find t when the tank is empty, while starting at 2/3 capacity...
2/3-t/60=0
(40-t)/60=0
40-t=0
t=40
It would take 40 minutes to empty the tank when it is 2/3 full.
