Please show work my trouble is not in the solving of the problem its the figuring out how to set up the equation.




Sagot :

The answer is 3 1/2 days
To get the answer, you first add 1.5 to 1.2=2.7 then you divide 9.45 by 2.7(9.45/2.7)But to do that you must move the decimal of 2.7 one to the right and you do the same for 9.45 resulting in 94.5/27days
