It takes an airplane 5/12 of a minute to fly 3/4 of a mile. What is the airplanes speed per minute?

1 answer:

7 0

To make this a little easier, you would want to turn 3/4 into 9/12, to match 5/12's denominator.

You would then just add 7/1 to both fractions

(5/12+7/1=12/12 or 1 minutes)
(9/12+7/1=16/12=1 1/3)

So your answer would be 1.333... miles per minute

Hope this helps

V125BC [204]

Answer:

6 gumballs can be stored in the gumball machine.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a gumball machine consists of a base and a glass sphere, and the gumballs are stored in the glass sphere, if each gumball has a diameter of 1.5 inches, to determine how many gumballs can be stored in a gumball machine whose glass sphere measures 10 inches in diameter, the following calculation must be made:

10 / 1.5 = X

6.666666 = X

Thus, 6 gumballs can be stored in the gumball machine.
