Hi there!

The correct answer is 6.25 times.

This is how you get there:

1) First off, you are going to need to have the same unit (either cm or mm). I used millimeters for this problem. 25cm=250mm

2) This next part is very easy to get wrong. You need to figure out what you are dividing, and by what. Simply look at the problem. <span><em>"How much longer is the guinea pig than her fish?" </em>This shows what numbers you should be getting. The guinea pig is 250mm long, where the fish is only 40. This means that her guinea pig should be larger. 250÷40=6.25

If you did this problem the other way, you would've ended up with .16. If you put the sizes into perspective, you will notice that this is highly unlikely.

I hope that I have been able to simplify this problem for you!

At a carnival game, you randomly throw two darts at the board and break two balloons. What is the probability that both the ball
Amanda [17]
4/15 of the balloons are purple. You have two darts. There are 105 combinations of hitting two balloons out of the 15. There are 6 combinations of purple balloons to be hit. This (Purple combinations over total combinations) is your probability. 6/105 simplified to 2/35 or 2:35
So your chance of picking the purple balloons, both purple, out is 2 in 35 or 2/35

A circular flower bed is 24m in diameter and has a circular sidewalk around it that is 2m wide. Find the area of the sidewalk in
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

163.3m²

Step-by-step explanation:

area = Pi(r²)

r = d / 2

r = 12

12² = 144

144 x 3.14 = 452.16

diameter of bigger circle = 24 + 4 (2 on each side)

28 / 2 = 14

14² = 196

196 x 3.14 = 615.44

sidewalk = bigger - smaller

sidewalk = 615.44 - 452.16

sidewalk = 163.3
