5 × (8 + 2 ) = 5(8 + 2) = (5 × 8 ) + (5 × 2)
Let the width be x, the length is then 3x-10
Area of a rectangle is length times width: x(3x-10)=77 => 3x^2-10x-77=0
Factor this quadratic equation: (x-7)(3x+11)=0 =.x=7 or x=-11/3
width cannot be negative, so the only answer is x=7
width is 7m, length is 11m
First you'd find 1/50 as a decimal by dividing 1 and 50 which gives you 0.02. 0.02 as a decimal is 2 so add 2 to the other numbers and you'll get 234.5%. Hope it helped
Hi!! for this one just do the first equation divided by the second
The product is less than either of the factors. Multiplying a number < 1 with 2/3 another number < 1, will give a fraction of a fraction, and part of a fraction is an even smaller fraction. Another way of looking at it: Fractions less than one have numerators smaller than their denominators. When multiplying fractions, you multiply across, so multiplying two fractions that are both less than one will always give a numerator much smaller than the denominator, and a larger denominator makes for a smaller number. I hope this helps, but if you have questions, ask.
