Assuming they start saving at 0 dollars
45=total=duanesavings+micksavings
duanesavings=confusing, I will explain
mick savings =amount saves per week times number of weeks
duane saves 5 dollars every other week, aka 2.5 dollars per 1 week
DS=2.5w
MS=2w
since they save at same time and at that week, when the weeks are equal (w=w), 45 it total
DS+MS=45
2.5w+2w=45
4.5w=45
divide by 4.5 both sides
w=10
10 weeks
Answer:
the answer is 9/2 = 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
When yo add all the halves up you get 9/2
The piece of ribbon would be 75 inches. The ribbon would be 75 inches because 1 foot would be 12 inches and you would multiply 12 by 6 to get 72. Then, 1/4 of a foot would be 3 inches because you could divide 12 and 4(the denominator you are dealing with) to get 3. Then, add 72 + 3 to get 75. Hope this helps!
