paula spent 3/8 of her allowance on clothes and 1/6 on entertainment. what fraction of her allowance did she spend on other item
MArishka [77]
We have to calculate the fraction of Paula`s allowance that she spent on other items if she already had spent 3/8 on clothes and 1/6 on entertainment. First we have to add: 3 / 8 + 1 / 6 = ( LCD is 24 ) = 9 / 24 + 4 / 24 = 13 / 24. Then : 1 - 13 / 24 = 24 / 24 - 13 / 24 = 11 / 24. Answer: She has spent 11 / 24<span> of her allowance on other items. </span>

The clock was exactly on time at 7am at 1pm the clock was 228 seconds late at that rate how slow was the clock half an hour
yan [13]

Answer:

19 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the clock was exactly on time at 7am, and at 1pm the clock was 228 seconds late, to determine, at that rate, how slow was the clock half an hour, the following calculation must be performed:

1 PM = 13:00

13 - 7 = 6

228/6 = 38

38/2 = 19

Thus, every half hour the clock is delayed 19 seconds.
