Question

pages. Eva’s study on this particular subject had 1 1/2
times as many pages as Al1’s. How many pages did Eva write?

(Must be in simplest form)

Answer 1

To find how many pages Eva wrote, we need to multiply the number of pages Ali wrote (7 3/5) by 1 1/2.

First, we need to convert 7 3/5 to an improper fraction.
7 3/5 = (7*5 + 3)/5 = 35/5 + 3/5 = 38/5

Now let's multiply 38/5 by 1 1/2.
38/5 * 1 1/2 = (38/5) * (3/2) = (38*3) / (5*2) = 114/10 = 57/5

Therefore, Eva wrote 57/5 pages.
