Answer: 2 2/5 is 4/5 of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can view that as what do we multiply 3 by to get 2 2/5 and call that value x
3x = 2 2/5
x = (2 2/5)/3
Let's turn 2 2/5 into an improper fraction... 2 2/5 = 12/5
So we have
x = (12/5)/3 = (12/5)(1/3) = 4/5
Thus 2 2/5 is 4/5 of 3
Verify: 3(4/5) = 12/5 = 2 2/5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the ages be r and m
<u>We have:</u>
<u>Substitute m in the second equation and solve for r:</u>
- m = 117 - r
- 5r = 9 + 3( 117 - r)
- 5r = 9 + 351 - 3r
- 5r + 3r = 360
- 8r = 360
- r = 360/8
- r = 45
<u>Then m is</u>
180537.5 simplified is 180538
3(4x - 4) - 7x, when simplified, is 5x - 12. So your answer would be A, or the first one.
