Let the time taken by Vince to complete the race was x hours.
Maury completed the race 1.5 hours faster. This means Maury complete the race in (x - 1.5) hours.
Average Speed of Maury = 16 miles per hour
Average Speed of Vince = 12 miles per hour
Distance = Speed x Time.
For Maury:
Distance = 16(x - 1.5)
For Vince:
Distance = 12x
Since the distance covered by both was the same, we can equate the two equations as:
16(x - 1.5) = 12x
16x - 24 = 12x
4x = 24
x = 6
This means Vince complete the race in 6 hours.
Distance = Speed x Time = 12 x 6 = 72 miles
Thus, the total distance of the race was 72 miles.
I think that the answer is A, because in the range, none of the numbers should be the same, and the numbers are all different in choice A
Step-by-step explanation:
The spores always x3 after a month so going a month back they ÷3 instead so 900÷3 is 300 spores on the first month
This is how I would solve it, I would act as if there were 36 people in the class.
36÷6=6×5=30
30÷3=10×2=20
20/36=10/18=5/9
You could also try another number such as 24;
24×(5÷6)=20
20×(2/3)=13.3(3 repeating)
13.333/24=5/9
5/9 people have dogs.
Tell me if this helps.
