what rational expression can be used
@SneliS do you know how to write rational expressions because i dont even know where to start
A.) fold napkins would be Stacie and Nick cause they fold the fastest. set tables would be Jeff and Tiffany cause they're the fastest at setting the tables
B.)well since theirs 45 tables and the people setting the tables take 3 min and 2 min to set one table, which would be 5 min to set two tables, try dividing 45 by two and multiplying by 5. Then folding napkins: 45 tables, 3 min and 3.5 min per table = about 7.5 min per table = divide 45 by 2 multiply by 7.5 that will give you the times that it should take for each pair to finish their jobs.
are you doing the question out of the book because my teacher gave us different answers i have to write a rational expression, the % of the total jobs the manager wants done.what is the number that represents the %?, and an equation that can be used to help solve the problem? @@SneliS
