How many times longer is the length of the rectangle compared to the width? 14.4cm by 1.6cm

1 answer:

4 0

The answer is 8.

Explanation:

To find this out we would first subtract the width (1.6) from the length (14.4). 14.4 - 1.6 = 12.8. If we want to find out how many times which is how many time 1.6 to get 12.8, we would divide 12.8 by 1.6. The quotient is 8. Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 8 times that of the width.

I hope I helped and good luck!

How do you write 199.4% as a decimal?

allsm [11]

Answer:

1.994

Step-by-step explanation:

"Percent" means "per 100" or "over 100". To convert 199.4% to a decimal rewrite 199.4 percent in terms of per 100 or over 100.

199.4% = 199.4 over 100 or,

199.4%=199.4100

199.4 over 100 is the same as 199.4 divided by 100. Completing the division we get:

199.4 ÷ 100 = 1.994

Therefore, we have shown that

199.4% = 1.994

Simplified Conversion:

Remove the percent sign % and divide by 100.

199.4 ÷ 100 = 1.994

Shortcut Conversion:

Move the decimal point 2 places to the left and remove the percent sign %

199.4% becomes 1.994

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

15 baskets

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is a GCF question

The first step would be to find the factors of 45, 75 and 90

The factors of 45 are: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 45

The factors of 75 are: 1, 3, 5, 15, 25, 75

The factors of 90 are: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90

The greatest common factor is 15.

Therefore, the greatest number of baskets they can make if each basket has the same number of pears, the same number of peaches, and same number of apples, with no fruit leftover is 15 baskets

The figure shows a kite inside a rectangle. Which expression represents the area of the shaded region? 2x2 4x2 6x2 8x2

Savatey [412]

The picture in the attached figure

we know that
area of the <span>the shaded region=area of rectangle -area of a kite

area of rectangle=(3x+x)*(x+x)----> 4x*2x---> 8x</span>²

area of a kite=(1/2)*[d1*d2]
where d1 and d2 are the diagonals
d1=4x
d2=2x
so
area of a kite=(1/2)*[4x*2x]----> 4x²

area of the the shaded region=8x²-4x²-----> 4x²

the answer is
4x²
