Third, multiply 1 × 6 to get 6 and 6 × 2 to get 12.
Fourth, find the GCF of 6 and 12.
Factors of 6: 1, 2, 3, 6
Factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
The GCF is 6.
Fifth, divide the numerator by the GCF.

Answer as fraction:

Answer as decimal: 0.5
Given that a company budgeted 5 1/4 hours to complete a project, determine how much time they spent on research if they spent 1/3 of the total budget.
First, convert the budget from hours into minutes.
5 1/4 hours = 315 minutes
1 hour = 60 min
1/4 hour = 15 min
60 x 5 = 300
300 + 15 = 315
Then, divide the minutes by 3 or multiply it by 1/3.
315 / 3 = 105
315 x 1/3 = 105
Lastly convert to a mixed number.
1 3/4 hour
Thus, the company plans to spend 1 3/4 hours or 1 hour and 45 minutes on research.
Answer:
fifth option
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 2(x - 5) ≤ 6x + 18 ← distribute left side
- 2x + 10 ≤ 6x + 18 ( subtract 6x from both sides )
- 8x + 10 ≤ 18 ( subtract 10 from both sides )
- 8x ≤ 8
Divide both sides by - 8, reversing the sign as a result of dividing by a negative quantity, thus
x ≥ - 1
