Answer: I think it's 0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding all the numbers together (0.2; 0.4; 0.4; 0.6) gives you 1.6 which, when divided by the amount of numbers, gives you 0.4. If that isn't the kind of mean you're referring to. It'd still be 0.4 because it is the value in the middle of all given numbers.
Take both mixed numbers (a whole number plus a fraction) and turn them into improper fractions ( a numerator (top number) bigger than the denominator (bottom number). To do this, multiply the denominator by the whole number, and add the result to the numerator.
5 5/8 will become 45/8
1 1/2 will become 3/2.
Area is length* width, so width would be Area/ length. So 45/8 is the area and 3/2 is the length. Now you have (45/8)/(3/2). To divide fractions, take the second fraction and flip the numerator and denominator, forming the reciprocal (2/3). Now multiply 45/8 and 2/3
The result is 90/24, and simplifying would get 15/4, or 3 3/4. This is the width(or length)
The numbers are "x" and "y",
we suggest this system of equations.
x+y=24
x-y=15
solve by reduction method.
x+y=24
x-y=15
-----------------
2x=39 ⇒x=39/2=19.5
x+y=24
-(x-y=15)
-------------------
2y=9 ⇒y=9/2=4.5
The numbers are 19.5 and 4.5
To check
19.5+4.5=24
19.5-4.5=15
30÷5 (the 5 parts from 2:3) is 6 so the first group gets 12 (2x6) and the second gets 18 (3x6)
