Lan wants to run less than 7/12 miles. It says to find out a fraction with a denominator of 4 and which is less than 7/12.
Let's assume the required fraction to be x/4 such that x/4 is less than 7/12.

So we must have multiples of 3's that should be less than 7, we have only two choices 3 < 7 or 6 < 7.
It means x = 1 or x = 2, and the required fraction would be 1/4 or 2/4.
2/4 is simplified to 1/2 and the question says to have denominator 4.
Hence, final answer is 1/4
Remaining area of poster = Area of Big rectangle - Area of small rectangle
= (36*24) - (5*12) =
= 864 - 60 = 804 in^2
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1 day = 1440min
so 36min of a day = 36/1440 = 1/40

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
7a + 42 + 8 < -10 + 9a - 64a
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>
- Combine like terms (a): 7a + 42 + 8 < -10 - 55a
- Combine like terms: 7a + 50 < -10 - 55a
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 55a on both sides: 62a + 50 < -10
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 50 on both sides: 62a < -60
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 62 on both sides: a < -30/31
Here we see any number <em>a</em> less than -30/31 would work as a solution to the inequality.
