We can find the length of the ladder by squaring the known digits, adding them, and finding the square root of the sum. This would mean our first equation, after squaring, will look like this:
49+81=130
Now that we have <em>c</em> squared, we can go through and find the approximate square root, which is 11.4. That would mean the ladder is 11.4 meters long.
Answer: See below
Step-by-step explanation:
number of yellow pieces/number of blue pieces
= 14/24
= 7/12 --> 7 to 12 --> 7:12
The ratio that represents the number of yellow pieces to the total number of pieces is part-to-whole
number of yellow pieces/total number of pieces
= 14/100
= 7/50 --> 7 to 50 --> 7:50
The ratio that represents the number of blue pieces to the total number of pieces is part-to-whole
= 24/100
= 6/25 --> 6 to 25 --> 6:25
What you need to do is give these problems a common denominator. Which makes 3/21 and14/21 respectively. Logically, you need to walk 4/21 of the trail. This can’t be simplified further.
