Answer:

13 hours and 12 minutes 


Step-by-step explanation:

You put 3.25 as a fraction which is 3 1/4. then I took 3 1/4 and misused it by 11 1/2. 23/2 - 13/4 = 8 1/4 then we took the 5/8 and divided it by 33/4 (3 1/4) I got 13 1/5. 13 1/5 is 13 hours and 12 minutes.

What is m∠G ?
Minchanka [31]
Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°, then:

∠H + ∠F + ∠G = 180°

(x°) + (x-5)° + (3x+25)° = 180°
Remove all parenthesis and computr

x+x-5+3x+25 = 180
5x + 20 = 180
5x=160
x = 32°, then ∠G = 3x+25 = 3(32)+25 = 121°

Group B:

Q1 = 1400; Q3 = 1850

IQR = 1850 - 1400 = 450

Greater IQR = Group A

The values in the middle 50%.of Group A are more spread out Than those of Group B.
