Answer:

a) 3/12 = 1/4

b) 6/12 = 1/2

c) 9/12 = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance traveled by the hour hand, subtract the beginning position from the ending position. For example, in a, the distance traveled between 4:00 and 7:00 is three hours. Since there are 12 total hours on a clock, the fraction would be 3/12 (traveled/whole revolution). Simplify further to get 1/4.

The other two problems are very similar to the explanation above. Treat the second problem's ending time as 14:00, since it is two hours after 12:00.

Hope this helps!

Help please, Which expression does not belong? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

My best answer is option number 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the first 3 answers follow a specific pattern in addition and division, i.e. they only go up to 4 different numbers, whereas with the 4th option, that changes. Not only that, but if you look closely, the 4th option adds 6 to itself 5 times, that's the same as 6x5, which equals 30, so if you divide 30 by 5, its almost pointless seeing as how you already know it's gonna get you 6.

How long does a car traveling at 70 mph take to travel 88 miles, in hours
dybincka [34]
So,

Obviously, the car will travel 70 miles in one hour.  So after one hour, the car will have traveled 70 miles.  That leaves 18 miles.

The time it will take for the car to go another 18 miles will be 18 divided by 70.
\frac{18}{70}

Simplify.
\frac{2*3*3}{2*5*7}
\frac{3*3}{5*7}
\frac{9}{35}

Divide.
≈ 0.25714

So a car traveling at 70 mph will take approximately 1.25714 hours or 1.26 hours to travel 88 miles.
