Answer:
Maria needs 3 lengths of gutter of finish the shed.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to calculate the perimeter of the rectangular shed to know how much 5 feet gutter is needed.
The perimeter of the shed is p = 2(l + b) where l = 10ft and b = 9 ft
p = 2(10 + 9) = 2(19) = 38 ft
Now, the perimeter of the shed also equal 23 ft of gutter already installed plus 5x ft gutter where x = number of gutters.
So 23 + 5x = 38
collecting like terms, we have
5x = 38 - 23
5x = 15
dividing through by 5 we have
5x/5 = 15/5
x = 15/5
x = 3
So, Maria needs 3 lengths of gutter of finish the shed.
Divide 18 to both sides and you get -12
Answer:
Equal to 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The way I learned multiplication was with some sayings. "7 times 7 went out to dine, when they came back it was 49"
140/300=14/30
14/30=7/15
So 7/15 is _
46.6%
