Answer:

Mother = 17 inches and then Newborn = 5 (2/3) or 5.66666666667 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

I was sort of guessing based on your question what you were looking for. How I solved this is we know that since the average adult giraffe is 18 feet tall and the average newborn giraffe is 6 feet tall, then the adult giraffe is about 3 times as tall as the average newborn giraffe so the ratio is 3:1 adult: newborn. So with the mother at 17 inches, then since the newborn giraffe is, on average, 3 times smaller than the mother, it is therefore 17/3 = 5.666667 or 5 and 2/3s.

Simplify. ‒36 ÷ (27 ÷ 3 ∙ 2)
andrew11 [14]

The simplified value  of expression -36/(27/3*2) is -8.

Given an expression -36/(27/3*2).

We are required to find the simplified value of given expression. To simplify the expression we need to use addition,subtraction,multiplication, division, brackets, etc. We can say that we have to use BODMAS in order to find the simplified value of expression.

Expression is combination of numbers, symbols, coefficients, determinants, indeterminants, fraction,algebraic operations,etc.  usually not found in equal to form.

The given expression :

=-36/(27/3*2)     (Multiplying 3 and 2 first)

=-36/(27/6)

=(-36*2)/9   (Invert the fraction given in denominator)

=-72/9          (Multiplying -36 to 2)

=-8

Hence the simplified value of expression -36/(27/3*2) is -8.
