Ali’s project on the greenhouse effect comprised 7 3/5
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)
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.
