The bed of the truck is a rectangle, 4-ft wide and 8-ft long.

The diagonal of the rectangle is

                                 √ (4² + 8²)

                             =  √ (16 + 64)

                             =  √ (80)

                             =  8.9442... feet 

                        8.9442... feet =  8 feett  11.33 inches

Rounded to the nearest inch:    8 ft  11 in .

The ratio of boys to girls at the beach cleanup was 7.8. If there are 42 boys how many girls are there?
Mars2501 [29]
If the ratio is 7:8, and the number of boys is 42, you would do 42 divided by 7, which equals 6. Then you do 8 times 6, and that's equal to 48. So the ratio is 42:48, with an amount of 48 girls.

Gaurav takes 15 rounds of a rectangular park whose length is twice its breadth. If the total distance covered by Gaurav is 900m
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

length = 20 breadth = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

divide 900 by 15

= 60

60 divided by 6 because the length is twice the breath

60 / 6 is 10

so ten is the breadth of one side and double that is 20 so the length is 20

Hope this helped!
