Answer:
y = 11/20
Step-by-step explanation:
-4/5 + y = -1/4
Add 4/5 to each side
-4/5 +4/5 + y = -1/4+4/5
y = -1/4 + 4/5
Get a common denominator
y = -1/4 *5/5 + 4/5 *4/4
y = -5/20 + 16/20
y = 11/20
Check
-4/5 +11/20 = -1/4
Get a common denominator
-4/5*4/4 + 11/20 = -1/4*5/5
-16/20 +11/20 = -5/20
-5/20 = - 5/20

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 16/25 (sorry I'm not really sure bc I'm just a middle schooler)
Step-by-Step explanation:
2 2/5 km=2.4 kilometers
3 3/4 minutes=3.75 minutes
2.4/3.75=240/375
240/375=48/75=16/25=64/100=0.64
0.64 km/minute (0.64 km per minute)
you can solve the problem using the fractions...
2 2/5=12/5
3 3/4=15/4
(12/5)/(15/4)=(12/5)*(4/15)=48/75=16/25=0.64 again, or you can simplify before multiplying...
(12/5)/(15/4)=(12/5)*(4/15)=(4/5)*(4/5)=16/25...
250*0.62= 155
155 pounds is your answer.
