Answer:
208⅓ ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimensions of Rachel's living room are 80 times the measurements on the scale drawing.
Calculate the width:
w = 80 × 1⅞
Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction = 80 × 15/8
Cancel the 8s = 10 × 15
= 150 in
Convert inches to feet = 150/12
Convert the improper fraction to a mixed number = (144 + 6)/12
= 12⁶/₁₂
Reduce the fraction to lowest terms = 12½ ft
Calculate the length
l = 80 × 2½ = 80 × 5/2 = 40 × 5 = 200 in = 200/12 = (192 + 8)/12
l = 16⁸/₁₂ = 16⅔ ft
Calculate the area
A = lw
A = 16⅔ × 12½
Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions
A = 50/3× 25/2
Cancel the 2s
= 25/3 × 25
Multiply numerators and denominators
= 625/3
Convert the improper fraction to a mixed number
= (624 + 1)/3
= 208⅓ ft²
The area of Rachel's living room is 208⅓ ft².
5 ft = 5 * 12 in = 60 inches
Four consecutive even numbers are: x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6
x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 = 60
4 x + 12 = 60
4 x = 60 - 12
4 x = 48
x = 48 : 4
x = 12
Answer:
Those shelves should be: 12, 14, 16 and 18 inches long.
Verification: 12 + 14 + 16 + 18 = 60 in = 5 ft.
