Answer:
3.4 yards cubed
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume is length x width x height
Length 2 4/5, Width 2, Height 3/5 so 2 4/5 x 2 x 3/5
It looks like they want the answer in decimal form, so you can convert the fractions into decimals.
For the length 2 4/5, you divide the 4 by 5 to get a decimal of .8 so now it's 2.8
For the height of 3/5, you divide the 3/5 & get .6
Now it's 2.8 x 2 x .6 = 3.36 yards cubed which could get rounded up to 3.4 yards cubed
The answer is 623/800 and that is in simplest form.
Answer:
2/3<9/10; I used 3/4 as a benchmark.
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3<1/2; I used 1/2 as a benchmark.
2/3 = 0.(20/3) = 0.667
1/2 = 0.(10/2) = 0.5
So this is wrong, as 0.667 > 0.5.
1/2=3/5; I used 1/4 as a benchmark.
1/2 = 0.(10/2) = 0.5
3/5 = 0.(30/5) = 0.6
0.5 != 0.6, so this is wrong.
2/3<9/10; I used 3/4 as a benchmark.
2/3 = 0.(20/3) = 0.667
9/10 = 0.(90/10) = 0.9
So this is correct, as 0.667 < 0.9
3/4<2/3; I used 1/2 as a benchmark.
3/4 = 0.(30/4) = 0.75
2/3 = 0.(20/3) = 0.667
0.75 > 0.667, so this is wrong.
