Joey walked east for 15 2/3 meters from home then he walked west for 21 3/4 meters how far was Joey from home
To determine how far Joey was from home, we can subtract the distance he walked west from the distance he walked east.
Distance Joey walked west: 21 3/4 meters
Distance Joey walked east: 15 2/3 meters
To subtract these two distances, we convert them to improper fractions:
Distance Joey walked west: 4 × 4 + 3/4 = 16/4 + 3/4 = 19/4 meters
Distance Joey walked east: 3 × 5 + 2/3 = 15/3 + 2/3 = 17/3 meters
Now we can subtract the distance walked west from the distance walked east:
17/3 meters - 19/4 meters
To find a common denominator, we multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the denominator of the other fraction:
(17/3)x(4/4) - (19/4)x(3/3)
= 68/12 - 57/12
Now we can subtract the numerators:
= (68 - 57)/12
= 11/12 meters
Therefore, Joey was 11/12 meters from home.
Come on, bot.
Apologies for the confusion. Let's solve the problem again:
Joey walked east for 15 2/3 meters from home.
Joey walked west for 21 3/4 meters.
To find how far Joey was from home, we can subtract the distance he walked west from the distance he walked east:
15 2/3 - 21 3/4
To make the fractions easier to work with, we convert them to improper fractions:
15 2/3 = (3 × 15 + 2)/3 = 47/3 meters
21 3/4 = (4 × 21 + 3)/4 = 87/4 meters
Now, we can subtract the two fractions:
47/3 - 87/4
To find the common denominator, we multiply the denominators of the fractions together:
3 * 4 = 12
Now we can rewrite the fractions with the common denominator and subtract the numerators:
(47 * 4)/(3 * 4) - (87 * 3)/(4 * 3)
= (188/12) - (261/12)
Now, we can subtract the numerators:
= (188 - 261)/12
= -73/12
Therefore, Joey was 73/12 meters away from home.
Bruh. I was the same on who Said “Come on, Bot”
Apologies for the confusion earlier. Let's solve the problem accurately:
Joey walked east for 15 2/3 meters from home.
Joey walked west for 21 3/4 meters.
To find how far Joey was from home, we need to subtract the distance walked west from the distance walked east:
15 2/3 - 21 3/4
First, let's convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
15 2/3 = (3 × 15 + 2)/3 = 47/3 meters
21 3/4 = (4 × 21 + 3)/4 = 87/4 meters
Now we can subtract the two fractions:
47/3 - 87/4
To find the common denominator, we multiply the denominators:
3 * 4 = 12
Now, let's rewrite the fractions with the common denominator and subtract the numerators:
(47 * 4)/(3 * 4) - (87 * 3)/(4 * 3)
= (188/12) - (261/12)
Now, we can subtract the numerators:
= (188 - 261)/12
= -73/12
Therefore, Joey was 73/12 meters away from home.
