Step-by-step explanation:
This can be put into fractions like this
Say x is the length of the missing dimension
8.5/11 = 10.5/x
Because the 2 drawings are SIMILAR, the ratio of their side lengths has to also be the same
8.5 ÷ 10.5 = 0.8095
11 × 0.8095 = 8.9047
Roung the answer to the nearest tenth
x = 8.9 in
This is fairly simple. Divide 2,871,000 by 10 and that's your answer!

Also, since you're dividing by a factor of 10 (or in this case, <em>10</em>) you can just take away as many places as are zeros in the number you're dividing from. This works for <em>10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, etc. </em>In this case, since there is only one zero in 10 you only take away one place marking, which gives you 287,100.
Answer:
t=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
New pump:
5 hours = 1 pool
1 hour = 1/5 pool
Old pump:
15h = 1 pool
1h = 1/15 pool
If both work together
1h = 1/5 + 1/15 = 4/15 pool
4/15 pool = 1 hour
1/15 pool = 1/4 hour
15/15 pool = 1/4 x 15
1 pool = 3.75 hours or 3 hours 45 mins
4 quarters is a dollar. So 25 divided by 4 is $6.25. A nickel is 5 cents, so multiply 3 by 5. Giving us $.15. And finally the one penny adds $.01. Add it all together and you get $6.41 for the decimal. Now for the fraction, since 100 cents is $1, the denominator is 100. And since there are $6, it would be 6_41/100 for the fraction.
