3. Ramona drank 1 5/8 liters of water during soccer practice. She drank 1 1/4
liters of water on the ride home. Which expression could be used to
determine the amount of water, in liters, Ramona drank altogether?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The expression x = [tex]\frac{13}{8}+\frac{5}{4}[/tex] could be used to determine the amount of water drank altogether.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount of water drank during practice = [tex]1\frac{5}{8} = \frac{13}{8}[/tex]  liters

Amount of water drank on the ride home = [tex]1\frac{1}{4} = \frac{5}{4}[/tex] liters

Let,

x be the total amount of water drank by Ramona.

x = Water drank during practice + Water drank on the ride home

x = [tex]\frac{13}{8}+\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Hence,

The expression x = [tex]\frac{13}{8}+\frac{5}{4}[/tex] could be used to determine the amount of water drank altogether.
