3/8 of a foot = 3/8 x 12/1 or 4 1/2 inches
So our 1/2 inch grows by a factor of 9 because 4 1/2 ÷ 1/2 = 9 Think how many 1/2 dollars are in 4 1/2 dollars. (Answer is 9)
So our 8 4/9 in the catalog has to grow the same
8 4/9 x 9 = 8 4/9 x 9/1 = 76/9 x 9/1 or 76 inches which is 6 ft 4 inches.
(76 ÷12 = 6 r4)
The school can buy fifteen notebooks and nineteen tablets. 15X7=105 and 5X19=95. 95+105=200. The first thing you want to do is realize that 5Xanything will give you an answer that has a 0 or a five at the end, so you want to find a product by 7 that ends with a 0 or 5 too.
A little more info please?
Answer:
Mary is filling 36 cups per minute, which is faster than Jorge.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets get Jorge's time :
As the rate is constant, we can find the slope to know the number of cups he is filling per minute.
Slope is found using: 
= 
= 
From the table lets get Mary's time:

= 
Another data: 
= 
Therefore, we can see that Mary is filling 36 cups in a minute and Jorge is filling 14 cups.
Hence, the correct answer is : Mary is filling 36 cups per minute, which is faster than Jorge.
