A relay race covers 1 1/2 miles, and each runner on a team will run 1/4 of a mile. How many runners are needed for a team?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The number of runners that'll be needed for the team will be 6 runners.

Number of miles for the relay race = 1 1/2 miles

Miles to be covered by each runner = 1/4 miles

Therefore, in order to get the number of miles that are needed for the team, we will have to divide 1 1/2 miles by 1/4 mile. This will be:

= 1 1/2 ÷ 1/4

= 3/2 ÷ 1/4

= 3/2 × 4/1

= 6

Therefore, 6 runners will be needed for the relay race.

Answer 2
Answer: If you do 1.5/.25 that gives you 6. So if each runner covers .25 of the race you need 6 runners on a team.

Okay, I stink at math. But I do know the last one, which is something. 

You have to divide the 4 by 4 and then get the x alone, but what is done to one side you have to do to the next so, 10/4 = 2.5 

So x ≤ 2.5

You use 4 gallons of water on 30 plants in your garden. At that rate how much water will it take to water 45 plants?

Answers

The easiest way to do this is with cross-multiplication.

4 gallons for 30 plants is written as 4/30

x gallons for 45 plants is written as x/45

Multiply 4 x 45 = 180

divide by 30

= 6 gallons of water
4/30 = x/45
cross multiply 
180 = 30x
divide
x = 6 gallons

-1 1/3 x -3/8 please help me

Answers

Answer:

1/2 (0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, set up the problem. We can't just multiply -1 1/3 by -3/8.

-1 1/3 is equal to - (4/3)

Now, WE CAN multiply - (4/3) by -3/8

- (4/3) x (-3)/8 = ?

4 x (-3) = (-12)

3 x 8 = 24

(-12)/24 = 1/2

Is 83 ft larger than 786 in???

Answers

83 ft is larger than 786 in.

To convert feet to inches, multiply 83ft by 12 because there are 12 inches in a foot.

83 x 12 = 996

996 in > 786 in
83 ft= 996 in
786 in= 65.5 ft

83 ft is larger than 786 in
