Answer:

1/4, 7/8, 7/12, 9/16

LCM of 4,8,12,16 = 48

1/4= 1×12/4×12= 12/48

7/8= 7×6/8×6= 42/48

7/12= 7×4/12×4= 28/48

9/16= 9×3/16×3= 27/48

hence, 7/8 is the largest fraction. I hope it helps ya!!

<u>Answer:</u>

19.5 x 29.25 inches

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given that the top of the table, which we are to build in our factory must of the the dimension 50 cm x 75 cm.

Also, out machine is calibrated in inches. So to find the size of the table in the inches, we need to multiply the given dimensions of the table top with the scale (1 cm = 0.39 inches)

50 cm ---> 50 x 0.39 = 19.5 inches

75 cm ---> 78 x 0.39 = 29.25 inches

Therefore, the dimensions of the table in inches are 19.5 x 29.25 inches.

nalin [4]

Answer:

The dimensions of rectangular fence are 14 feet and 20 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Length of rectangular fence = 14 feet

Width of fence = (14+x) feet

Area of rectangular field = 280 square feet

Area of rectangular field =

$A= \text{Length}\times \text{Width}$

Putting the values, we get,

$280 = 14(14+x)\\\\14 + x = \dfrac{280}{14}\\\\14 + x = 20\\x =20-14\\x = 6$

Thus, the dimensions of rectangular fence are 14 feet and 20 feet.
