Two people start walking at the same time in the same direction. One person walks at 8 mph and the other person walks at 3 mph. In how many hours will they be 1.25 miles apart?

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

speed v1=8mph

speed v2=3mph

distance= 1.25

time t=?

speed= distance/time

distance=speed*time

1.25=8*t-3*t

1.25=8t-3t

1.25=5t

t=1.25/5

t=0.25hours

In minutes it is 15min

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
