What is 2 1/8 take away 1/2​

Mathematics
1 answer:
goblinko [34]3 years ago
5 0

The equation is 2\frac{1}{8} - \frac{1}{2} .

1/2 is equivalent to 4/8, and 2 1/8 is equal to 17/8. (two full sets of 8 + 1 = 8 + 8 + 1, or 17)

The new equation is \frac{17}{8} -\frac{4}{8} . Subtract the numerators.

17 - 4 = 13 or 13/8

The improper fraction \frac{13}{8} simplifies to 1\frac{5}{8} .

<h2>Answer:</h2>

1\frac{5}{8}

Hope this helps :)

I have to find the length of the angle indicated for the trapezoid
Stels [109]
That is not a trapezoid, it is a general quadrilateral.  All 2-dimensional, 4-sided figures have an internal angle sum of 360 (triangles are 180).  So if you assume angles P and Q are right, they are each equal to 90 degrees, for a total of 180.
Subtract: 360 - 180 = 180.  We know that S + R must equal 180.  If you subtract 180 - 65, you get 115, which is obtuse (greater than 90 degrees).  This matches the drawing as the unknown angle is clearly greater than 90.  So the answer is 115 degrees.

Answer:

Hope 292.5 is right.

First thing, multiply the triangles base and height which will give you 143 then divide it by two which is 71.5. Then to the parallelogram which is base times height which is 117. Moving on to the trapezoid, meanin one-hal times height times first base plus second base giving you 104. Finally, add'em up, giving you a total of 292.5.
