Question

Uncle Drew scored 28 points in 5 5/6 minutes during a game of basketball. How many points did he average per minute during that 5 5/6

Answer 1

Answer: 48 points per minute

Explanation:

28 divided by 5 and 5/6

= 28/1 ÷ 35/6

Dividing fractions is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal

= 28/1 * 6/35

= (28*6)/35

= (4*6)/5 --> simplify by reducing by 7

= 24/5 --> to mixed fraction. 4 4/5 = 4 and 4/5 = 4.8 points per minute
