The answer would be 4. If you turn it to decimals, which would be 1.25 and 2.75, added together, it would be 4.
Answer:
2%
Step-by-step explanation:
Two percent of the employees have been cited for a safety violation because if you divide 200 and 4 by 2, its 2 out of 100 employees. This can be written as 2/100, .02, or 2%
2,000 (A-5) = 110,000
2,000A - 10,000 = 110,000
2,000A = 110,000 + 10,000
2,000A = 120,000
A = 60
Let's say that the shorter piece is x and the longer piece is 5x (because it's 5 times as long). x+5x=72 and 6x=72. Dividing both sides by 6, we get that x=12, and 72-12=the length of the other piece (since there are only 2 pieces)=60
