The expression which is equivalent to the given expression as in the task content is; 1.5 raised to the fifteenth power divided by 0.7 raised to the twelfth power.
<h3>What is the expression which is equivalent to the given expression?</h3>
According to the task content, it follows that the expression given is;
(1.5⁵/0.7⁴)³
= 1.5^(3×5) /0.7^(4×3)
= 1.5¹⁵/0.7¹².

2 1/4 miles => 1 week
1 mile => 1 ÷ 9/4
( 9/4 is an improper fraction of 2 1/4 )
12 1/2 miles => ( 1 ÷ 9/4 ) × 25/2
= 50/9
= 5 5/9 weeks
( 25/2 is an improper fraction of 12 1/2 )
Therefore, it will take 5 5/9 weeks for the company to replace the stretch of road.
( you can round it off to 6 weeks if the qn specify to give to the nearest whole number )
