Problem of the Day

Four sprinters run a race. In how many different ways can they arrive at the finish line, assuming there are no ties?24

Course 3

2-3 Adding and Subtracting Rational Numbers

Learn to add and subtract decimals and rational numbers with like denominators.

2-3 Adding and Subtracting Rational Numbers

In August 2001, at the World University Games in Beijing, China, Jimyria Hicks ran the 200-meter dash in 24.08 seconds. Her best time at the U.S. Senior National Meet in June of the same year was 23.35 seconds. How much faster did she run in June?

She ran 0.73 second faster in June.

24.08–23.35

0.73

Write the numbers so that the decimals line up.

Tom ran the 100-meter dash in 11.5 seconds last year. This year he improved his time by 0.568 seconds. How fast did Tom run the 100-meter dash this year?

Check It Out: Example 1

Tom ran the 100-meter dash in 10.932 seconds this year.

Subtract 0.568 from 11.5 to determine the new time.

10.932–0.56811.5 Add two zeros so

the decimals align.00
