This is simple algebra :)
First, we can write the question as an algebraic equation.
Given that Doug spent 40 more hours than Laura, we can represent Laura as (x) and Doug as (x+40).
"Doug and Laura spent a combined 250 hours." So we can write this as
(x) + (x+40) = 250
Now simplify:
2x + 40 = 250
Solve x by subtracting 40 from both sides of the equation:
2x = 210
Therefore:
x = 210/2
= 105
So Laura (x) spent 105 hours!
Answer:
A reality check quickly reveals that even if "eats" were spelled properly, the statement would still be nonsense.
Step-by-step explanation:
(40,000 pounds / 80 years) = (4,000 pounds / 8 years) = 500 pounds per year
500 pounds of bread per year = an average of a little more than 1-1/3 pound of bread per day, every day of a person's life. My reality meter says that this is a bit much, especially in the USA.
Answer:
16/24
Step-by-step explanation:
9/12–> simplify to 3/4
3/4=15/20
24/32=3/4
6/8=3/4
16/24 is not equal
I’ll do an example you have the numbers 1,5,7,2,9 you can tell the median is 7 right? So go from the very left and the median (7) and do the same thing you do to find median. (Id recommend crossing the numbers off as you go if that makes sense! :)
