Why can't you compare 5 minutes in 240 seconds without making some kind of change

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: you have to have the same unit of measure. Here your units are "minutes" and "seconds". In order to compare the two, you must change to 240 seconds into minutes (dividing by 60 = 4 mins) OR change the 5 minutes into seconds (multiply by 60 to give you 300 seconds)

at the park, people can climb a rope ladder to its top. rosa climbed 2/8 of the up the ladder. Justin climbed 2/6 of the way up the ladder. who climbed higher on the rope ladder?

Answers

well if you make the denominater of the fraction the same, aka finding the lowest common multiple you can find out so what you do is 8 and 6 both go into 24 8 goes into 24 3 times and 6 goes 4 times so you multiply the numerator by how many times the denominator goes into the LCM(lowest common multiple) and get 6/24 and 8/24 meaning justin climbed higher

if a new CD player in North Carolina cost $225 and the sales tax is 4.75%, how much will a customer save during a tax-free holiday, when tax does not need to be paid?

Answers

In this question , there are several information's that has been provided and are of immense importance. Cost of a new CD player in North Carolina cost $225. The sales tax applied is 4.75%. The amount of savings during tax free period has to be calculated.
Then
The amount of money that the customer will
save during tax free period = 225 * (4.75/100)
                                           = 225 * 0.0475
                                            = 10.687
So the person will save $10.687 or you can take it as $10.69 during the tax free period.
Forgive me if I'm doing this wrong but, 225 times .0475 = 10.68. The tax is 10.69. So, when tax doesn't need to be paid the customer saves $10.69.
