Answer:
5 1/4 times 1/2 = 2.625. as a fraction 2.625 is 2 5/8 because .625 could be drawn out to 625/1000 125 goes into 625 and 1,000 625 divided by 125 = 5 and 1,000 divided by 125 is 8 we already had 2 so 2 5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
From what I think of this question, i think of 9x37 and 8x37 OR 9/37 and 8/37. either way
8x37=296
9x37=333
9/37=0.2432
8/37=0.2162
Answer:
Diego is 14 years old.
Sister is 19
Step-by-step explanation:
x = Diego's age
<u>x</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>4</u>
2x-9 = 2
First to get rid of the fraction we multiply each side by 2
2(2x-9) = 2((x+24)/2)
4x-18 = x+24
The we isolate x
4x-18 = x+24
<u>-x+18 -x+18</u>
<u>3x</u> = <u>42</u> Now we divide each side 3
3 3
x = 14
So Diego is 14
Now we can solve for his sister. We can use one of the two equations from earlier to do this.
Plug 14 in for x and then solve for his sister
2(14)-9
28-9
19
His sister is 19
