Answer:

Trents estimate is incorrect

67 1/4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The fishing rod is 53 3/4 ft above water  : +53 3/4

The hook is 12 2/3 ft below the surface of the water  : - 12 2/3

The distance between the two is

53 3/4 - (-12 2/3)

53 3/4 + 12 2/3

Add the whole number

53 +12 = 65

Add the fractions

3/4 +2/3

We know this is greater than 1

The distance between the rod and the hook is greater than 66 ft

Trents estimate is incorrect

B.  The lets the hook drop 10 more inches

First lets calculate the actual distance before dropping the hook

53 3/4 + 12 2/3

65 3/4 +2/3

Getting a common denominator

65  3/4*3/3 + 2/3 *4/4

65  9/12 + 8/12

65 +17/12 ft

65 + 1 +5/12 ft

66 5 /12 ft

He drops it 10 more inches, so we need to add 10 inches to the distance

Changing that to feet

10 inches * 1 ft/12 inches = 10/12 inches

66 5/12 ft + 10 /12 ft

66 15 /12 ft

66 + 1 + 3 /12 ft

67 + 3 /12 ft

67 + 1/4 ft

67 1/4 ft
