Rational Number Non-Routine Problems

This document contains 3 non-routine math word problems involving rational numbers: 1) Find the original fraction if subtracting 1 from the numerator and denominator results in a fraction equal to 0.5. 2) Determine the rates of an express train that travels 150 km in the same time as a freight train that travels 100 km, if the express train is 20 km/hr faster. 3) Calculate how long it will take for a large pipe that empties a pool in 6 hours and a small pipe that empties the same pool in 9 hours to empty the pool working together.
