Grammar Hunches: Review of Present Progressive (Practice) Now that you have worked through a lot of material that includes these basic patterns, and you have compared grammatically correct and incorrect sentences, write down what you think is a rule that could explain what makes a sentence grammatically correct or not. For example, you might write something like: "verbs always match nouns in number, and they usually come before the noun." In other words, make your best guess for the grammar rule that makes sense out of the pattern(s) you see in the phrases you have been working with. Review if you need to, and you might briefly check your hunches against the sentences you have been working with in this or previous modules. Keep in mind that what you're after is your hunch, not a grammar rule from a text book. Now check your hunch with the explanation of this principle in the following pattern.

Answers

Answer 1

Based on my observation of the present progressive tense, I believe the underlying rule is that the present progressive tense is used to describe actions that are happening right now or ongoing actions that will continue in the near future.

It involves the verb "to be" (am, is, are) followed by the base form of the verb and the suffix "-ing."

For example:

I am learning English. (Ongoing action)The children are playing in the park. (Action happening right now)She is writing a letter. (Ongoing action)

Therefore, this rule explains why the present progressive tense is often used to describe temporary situations or activities. It also explains why the present progressive tense is not used to describe habitual or past actions.

If Jamie walks 1/2 a mile in 1/4 of an hour, how
many miles can Jamie walk in one hour?​

Answers

1/4 / 1/2 = ?

First of all, you can see we need to divide 1/2 by 1/4.

But we need to be careful what we need to do :)!

Others predict the answer is 2 miles and I really think so too. So I going to show you every step of this problem so we get it correct, sounds good? :)

So Jamie walks 1/2 a mile in 15 minuets, we cannot divide 15 and 1/2, so we would stick with 1/4.

Next, before we multiply, we need to know how to “Cross Reduce” Cross reducing is finding the greatest common factor of 2 fractions by opposite numerators and opposite denominators.

I will give an example in comments with picture. :D

Now we will divide, when we cross reduce, the fractions look like 1/4 and 1/2, there was nothing to reduce.

So 1/2 divided by 1/4 equals 2 miles.

So everyone that said 2 miles, amazing job!! We are all correct and the final answer is 2 miles.

Therefore, we learned how to Cross Reduce, divide fractions, and learn how to divide fractions.

To sum up the basics, for more information you should ask your teacher yet one classmate to be very sure.

Stay Brainly and have a great night. :)

The number of miles Jamie can walk in one hour is 2 miles

Given:

Number of miles Jamie walks = 1/2 mile

Time taken to walk = 1/4 hour

Ratio of miles Jamie walks to ratio of time taken = 1/2 : 1/4

If Jamie walks for 1 hour

let

x = number of miles walked

Ratio of miles Jamie walks to ratio of time taken = x : 1

Equate the ratio

1/2 : 1/4 = x : 1

1/2 ÷ 1/4 = x / 1

1/2 × 4/1 = x / 1

(1 × 4) / (2 × 1) = x / 1

4 / 2 = x / 1

cross product

4 × 1 = 2 × x

4 = 2x

divide both sides by 2

x = 4/2

x = 2 miles

Therefore, the number of miles Jamie can walk in one hour is 2 miles.
