2 (1/4)=9/4. Each day for the next 6 days, the amount increased by 1/4 hour
\n" ); document.write( "6*(1/4)=6/4
\n" ); document.write( "so next Saturday will bike 15/4 hours\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Sam does (1/2)+6(1/2) for a total of 7/2 or 14/4 hours
\n" ); document.write( "Terri will bike (1/4) hour longer\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Put fractions over a common denominator to compare them.
\n" ); document.write( "Multiplying an integer by a fraction works on the numerator, since an integer x is (x/1) and multiplying by 1 doesn't change a fraction.
