1 answer:

7 0

So slant height is the length of a lateral face

imagine a pyramid was hollow.

the height is the distance from center of the bottom... to the point.

the slant height tho... imagine if u unfolded it and laid it out flat on the ground
the slant height is the distance from the point of a face to the middle of the bottom. so your splitting the face into 2 equal triangles... right down the middle. slant height is bigger... always

Omar has 2-5/8 cups of dough to make dumplings. If he uses 3/16 cup of dough for each dumpling, how many whole dumplings can Oma

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The number of whole dumpling does Omar make is 14 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The number of cups does Omar has to make dumplings = x = 2 $\dfrac{5}{8}$

i.e x = $\dfrac{16 + 5}{8}$

or, x = $\dfrac{21}{8}$

Again

The number of cups uses for each dumpling = y = $\dfrac{3}{16}$

i.e y = $\dfrac{3}{16}$

Let The number of whole dumpling does Omar make = z

So, number of whole dumpling does Omar make = $\dfrac{\textrm number of cups does Omar has to make dumplings}{number of cups uses for each dumpling }$
