Andrew can reach a maximum of 
high up the wall.
The right-angled triangle formed can be solved using the 
ratio. that is
where 
is the distance from the foot of the wall to the tip of the ladder where it rests on the wall. Substituting, and solving for , we get
Since Andrew can reach an extra 
above the point where the ladder rests against the wall, the maximum height Andrew can paint is

Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
I think this is 1/3 because it is a ratio of successful outcomes to total number of outcomes..
Ex. Rolling a 6 sided dice.. you roll a 5... it would be 1/6.
Hope that makes sense.
Huh? this is very confusing 12
so, we have two 54x18 rectangles, so their perimeter is simply all those units added together, 54+54+54+54+18+18+18+18 = 288.
we know the circle's diameter is 1.5 times the width, well, the width is 18, so the diameter of the circle must be 1.5*18 = 27.
![\bf \stackrel{\textit{circumference of a circle}}{C=d\pi }~~ \begin{cases} d=diameter\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ d=27 \end{cases}\implies C=27\pi \implies C=\stackrel{\pi =3.14}{84.78} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{perimeter of the rectangles}}{288}~~~~+~~~~\stackrel{\textit{perimeter of the circle}}{84.78}~~~~=~~~~372.78](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bcircumference%20of%20a%20circle%7D%7D%7BC%3Dd%5Cpi%20%7D~~%20%5Cbegin%7Bcases%7D%20d%3Ddiameter%5C%5C%5B-0.5em%5D%20%5Chrulefill%5C%5C%20d%3D27%20%5Cend%7Bcases%7D%5Cimplies%20C%3D27%5Cpi%20%5Cimplies%20C%3D%5Cstackrel%7B%5Cpi%20%3D3.14%7D%7B84.78%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%20~%5Cdotfill%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bperimeter%20of%20the%20rectangles%7D%7D%7B288%7D~~~~%2B~~~~%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bperimeter%20of%20the%20circle%7D%7D%7B84.78%7D~~~~%3D~~~~372.78)
