Answer:

Naomi had the correct measurement the ring weighed 0.625 carats

Step-by-step explanation:

* The diamond ring weighed 5/8 carats

- To know who is right lets change the fraction 5/8 to a decimal number

∵ 5/8 means 5 ÷ 8

- 5 is smaller than 8 so we will multiply it by 10 and

insert decimal point in the quotient (answer of division)

∴ It will be 50 ÷ 8 = 6 and remainder 2/8 ⇒ 1/4

∴ The quotient = 0.6 and remainder 1/4

- 1 is smaller than 4 so we will multiply it by 10

∴ It will be 10 ÷ 4 = 2 and remainder 2/4 ⇒ 1/2

∴ The quotient = 0.62 and remainder 1/2

- 1 is smaller than 2 so we will multiply it by 10

∴ It will be 10 ÷ 2 = 5 without remainder

∴ The quotient = 0.625

Find CD if C(0,3) and D(4,7)

$C(0,3) \\
x_1=0 \\
y_1=3 \\ \\
D(4,7) \\
x_2=4 \\
y_2=7 \\ \\
\overset{\underline{\ \ \ \ }}{CD} =\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}=\sqrt{(4-0)^2+(7-3)^2}= \\
=\sqrt{4^2+4^2}=\sqrt{16+16}=\sqrt{16 \times 2}=4\sqrt{2} \\ \\
\boxed{\overset{\underline{\ \ \ \ }}{CD} = 4\sqrt{2}}$
