A horse can run 1 3/8 of a mile in 1 3/5 minute. How long does it take the horse to run 1 mile?
So what i would personally do first is convert the fractions into decimals.
1 3/8= 11/8= 1.375 of a mile
1 3/5= 8/5 =1.6 of a minute
Now we find the rate of change
I
"Will is twice as old as Jill."
Jill's age . . . . . J
Will's age . . . . 2J .
"Three years ago . . .
Jill's age then . . . . . J - 3
Will's age then . . . . 2J - 3
". . . Jill's age then was 2/5 of Will's age then."
J - 3 = (2/5) (2J - 3)
Multiply
each side by 5 : 5J - 15 = 2 (2J - 3)
Divide
each side by 2 : 2.5 J - 7.5 = 2J - 3
Subtract 2J
from each side: 0.5 J - 7.5 = -3
Add 7.5
to each side: 0.5 J = 4.5
Multiply
each side by 2 : J = 9
Jill is 9 y.o. now.
Will is 18 y.o. now.

Answer:
X=98°
Step-by-step explanation:
53° + 45° = 98
98-180= 82
every triangle is always equal o 180°
so... 53°+ 45°+ 82° = 180
to find x you need to subtract 82 from 180 which is 98
<em>remember its important to find the inner degree before the outer.</em>
