Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given A runner was working out to practice for a race. In the morning she ran for 1&3/4 of an hour. In the afternoon she ran for 7&1/5

• Given a runner was practicing for a race in the morning and in the evening.                     In the morning she ran 1 ¾ of an hour.
• So we need to convert mixed fraction to fraction.
• So 1 ¼ is converted to 7/4
• Also she ran 7 1/5 of an hour in the evening.
• So 7 1/5 is converted to 36/5
• Now we need to divide.
• So it will be 36/5 / 7/4
•               = 36/5 x 4/7
•               = 144 / 35
• So she ran 4 4/35 times as long  in the morning did she run in the afternoon
