Answer: 6 yards by 14 yards by 0.5 yard 

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the concrete will fill a space that is a right rectangular prism that is 18 feet wide, 42 feet long

The cubic feet of the space =

242 × 18 × 6/12= 378 cubic ft

Given that 1 foot = 12 inches and 1 yard = 3 feet

6 yards by 14 yards by yard will give

( 6×3 )×(14 × 3)×(0.5×3) = 378 cubic ft

the dimensions of this space must be equal to the concrete dimensions space that is a right rectangular prism

This question wants you to find a common denominator for the fractions.
This means finding the LCM, least common multiple, for 21 and 9.
This can be done by listing the multiples for each number until they meet at a common one.

9:
9
18
27
36
45
54
63

21:
21
42
63

This means the LCM of 21 and 9 is 63.
So the lowest possible common denominator is 63.

21 • 3 = 63
So you have to multiply the numerator of 2/21 by 3 as well.
2 • 3 = 6
2/21 = 6/63

Now do the same for 1/9.
9 • 7 = 63
Multiply the numerator, 1, by 7.
1 • 7 = 7
1/9 = 7/63

So in the first blanks, you would put 6/63 for what 2/21 is equal to and 7/63 for what 1/9 is equal to.

7/63 is greater than 6/63.
7/63 > 6/63
That means 1/9 > 2/21
So 2/21 < 1/9 is the answer to the last blank.

Hope this helps!

A ream of paper weighs 5 pounds and has dimensions of 8.5 inches by 11 inches by 2 inches.
devlian [24]
S = 2 (lw + lh + hw)
S = 2 ((8.5)(11) + (8.5)(2) + (11)(2))
S = 2 (93.5 + 17 + 22)
S = 2 (132.5)
S = 265 sq in

Jacob used 1/7 of a liter of water to fill 1/9 of the fish aquarium. How many liters of water are needed to fill the aquarium?
laila [671]
Jacob used 1/7 of a liter of water.
He needs to fill 1/9 of the fish aquarium.
Find how many liters would Jacob need to fill the aquarium
=> Let x = liters of water need to fill the aquarium
=> x/1 = 1/7 divided by 1/9
=> x = 1/7 x 9/1
=> x = 9/7, since this is an improper fraction, let’s convert it to mixed fraction
=> x  = 1 and 2/7
So, Jacob need 1 and 2/7 liter of water to fill the whole aquarium.

The first step to solving this expression is to reduce the numbers with 9.
-7 × 16
Now we need to multiply the two numbers together using the Rules of Signs for Multiplication. They state that multiplying a negative and a positive equals a negative: (-) × (+) - (-). Keeping this in mind,, when you multiply the two numbers together you should get -112.
