There are two routes lucas can take to walk to school. rout a is 2 1/8 miles and 3/8 miles longer than route b. the equation b+3/8=2 1/8 can be used to represent this situation, where b is the length of route b. how many miles will lucas walk if he takes route b? (a.1 1/2 miles) (b.1 3/4 miles) (c.2 1/4 miles) (d.2 1/2 miles)

The answer is going to be B)1 and 3/4 miles because when you subtract 2 1/8-3/8 it = 1.75 75 as a fraction is 3/4 and your whole number is one 

One shot. if 60% of 10 is 6, then what is 70%? we know it would be seven (since 60% is mathematically 60/100, or 6/10, then 70% is 70/100, or 7/10) but we can check anyway using ratios: 6 : 60% = x : 70%*inverse multiplicationx * 60% = 6 * 70%*divide both sides by 60%x = (6 * 70%) / 60%x = 7and since he has made 6 shots already, he would need just one more to get 7 shots or 70%. if the explanation is too confusing, comment and i will try to
