Generally speaking, 19/8 is 2.375 so they should be 28.5 inches apart. however you gotta factor in how thick the shelves themselves are :)
Answer:
The answer is -13/8 or -1 5/8 in mixed form.
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction 1 5/8 converted to improper is 13/8 so count 13 points to the right of the number line from 0. So that is where it falls.
Now if we are to find the opposite of a positive integer or fraction we are just to put a negative mark so it will be -1 5/8 or -13/8 in improper form. So just count 13 points to the left of the number line from 0 and that's your answer buddy!
But tbh this is actually an extensive and time taking process but if you follow this you can be sure of your answer. So the easier process is to see the whole and the parts of whole. As you can see there are 8 parts between each number so it means each number is divided into 8 parts and to make it easier the fraction shows that 1 5/8 has 8 parts for each to. So we will take the 1 of the 1 5/8 and skip 8 parts to the whole number 1. Then we will take the 5 from 5/8 and count 5 points from 1. That's the position of 1 5/8 on the number line. As for the opposite, add negativity sign and do just the same! And that's the answer!
HOPE it helps though...
Answer:
3.75 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The receptionist takes n hours to do 1 day's worth of work.
The assistant takes 4n hours to the 1 day's worth of work.
In 1 hour, the receptionist does 1/n amount of work.
In 1 hour, the assistant does 1/(4n) amount of work.
Working together, in 1 hour, they do this amount of work:
1/n + 1/(4n)
Working together, the 2 workers do the job in 3 hours.
Working together, in 1 hour, they do this amount of work:
1/3
1/n + 1/(4n) = 1/3
Multiply both sides of the equation by the LCD, 12n.
12 + 3 = 4n
4n = 15
n = 15/4
n = 3.75
Answer: 3.75 hours
Answer:
Notebook: 5$ each. Folder: 7.50$ each.
Step-by-step explanation:
A notebook costs 5$ more than a folder, and 3 notebooks were purchased, so we can safely say that at least 15$ was spent on notebooks. Then, take the remaining number after subtracting 15 from 30 and divide it by 2, assuming all of the folders are the same price.
