A class has LESS THAN 30 students
we must find what number is less than 30 and divides into both 4 and 8 so that we don't have a fraction of a student owning a football boot
the class could have 8 students
the class could have 16 students
the class could have 24 students
<u>lets assume that the class has the max possible so </u>
<u>24 in the class</u>
so we must find a coommon denomenator (bottom number) to keep the fractions the same we must multiply it by 1 or (number)/(same number as on top) or 1/1
so 3/4 times 2/2=6/8
7/8
so we must assume that the ones who own footballs also have boots (and not some other random person) so
6/8 or 3/4 of the class owns both football boots so
3/4 times 24=18
18 students own football boots
73 + 55 = 52 + n
Subtract 52 from each side:
73 + 3 = n
n = 76
Answer: 12.69 in
Explanation:
Square root of 161 is around 12.69
That means each side of the square is about 12.69 bc l x w = a
and square root of a = side length of square
