Jen used 1/2 cup of cereal and 2/3 cup of nuts to make trail mix. Her mother asked if she used more cereal or more nuts in the mix. Which statement correctly compares the fractions?

1/2<2/3. 1/2= half of a whole and half of a whole is 1/2. 2/3 is over a half so it means that 2/3 is better then 1/2 since 1.5 is actually the half of 3. Jen should say that she used more nuts to make trail mix then using cup of cereal to make trail mix because 2/3 is greater then 1/2.

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
