Your answer you need is D
Well, since 3 candles are 19.50, simply divide. This will make a ratio so that 1 candle will equal 6.50 per candle.
19.50 / 3 candles = 6.50 per candle.
This problem is simply asking us to add the weights which are presented as fractions. You can easily get the answer if you input them directly in a calculator. But I think the challenge here is to manually add fractions.
Let's add the two 1/4 lb weights because it is easier for they have a common denominator. Just simply add the numerators.
1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4
Then, add with this the fraction part of 2 1/5.
2/4 + 1/5 = ?
The least common denominator is 4*5 = 20. Then divide 20 with each denominator and multiply to their respective numerator.
2/4 + 1/5 = [(20/4 * 2) + (20/5 *1)]/20 = 14/20
14/20 is simplified to 7/10. Then add the whole number 2. <em>Therefore, the sum of all weights is 2 7/10 pounds.</em>
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
6 oz, 19lb
1 lb, 20lb
2 oz, 20lb 2oz
6oz+2oz+1lb= 1lb 8oz
The distance between starting and ending point is 34 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Car moves 16 miles to north then 30 mile to east.
It forms a right angle triangle.
The straight line distance from starting to ending point represents hypotenuse.
To find the distance between starting and ending point.
Formula
By <em>Pythagoras theorem,</em>
h² = b²+l² where h is the hypotenuse, b is base and l is the another side.
Taking, b=16 and l=30 we get,
h² = 16²+30²
or, h = 
or, h = 
= 34
Hence,
The distance between starting and ending point is 34 miles.
