George will arrive 20 minutes before Max

It takes Max 3 hours(180 minutes) to run 30 km .

The rate can be calculated as follows:

rate = 30 / 180 = 1/6 km/ min

George uses 2 hours 20 minutes(140 minutes) to run 30 km.

The rate can be calculated as follows:

rate =  30 / 140 = 3/14 km / min

If both are to complete a 15-kilometre race, Therefore,

Max time will  be

1 / 6 = 15 / t

t = 15 × 6

t = 90 minutes

George time will be

3/14 = 15 / t

3t = 210

t = 210 / 3

t = 70 minutes

Time difference = 90  - 70 = 20 minutes

Therefore, George will arrive 20 minutes earlier than Max

Is 1/2 equivalent to 5/8
kompoz [17]
<span>No. 

To check this yourself, you need the denominators to be the same to be able to easily compare the two. 

For example, does 5/8 = 40/64? 

1. Determine what you would need to do to the denominator in 5/8 to make it 64. (Multiply it by 8) 
2. Find what fraction is equal to 1 with a denominator of 8. (8/8) 
3. Multiply the fraction 5/8 by the one you just found (8/8), numerator times numerator, denominator times denominator. 
4. Compare the answer with the second fraction. 

It is important that when you multiply the denominator by any number you multiply the numerator by the same number. This is to preserve the fraction's value. This works because any number divided by itself is equal to 1, AND when you multiply any number by 1 (whether 1 is in the form of 1 or 4/4 or 8/8 or 234/234), the answer is always equal to the original number. 

Another way to check would be to simply enter 1/2 into a calculator, write down the answer. Next enter 5/8 into a calculator. If the answers are the same, they are equal.</span><span>

How to solve the problem
Nady [450]
50 - [(6² - 24) + 9√25]
= 50 - [36 - 24 + 9*5]
= 50 - [12 + 45]
= 50 - 57
= -7
