Let W = width of package
Let H = height of package
Let L = length of package

The perimeter cab be one of the following:
P = 2(L + W),  or
P = 2(L + H)

The perimeter of the cross section cannot exceed 108 in.
When the width is 10 in, then
 2(L + 10) <= 108
 L + 10 <= 54
 L <= 44 in

When the height is 15 in, then
2(L + 15) <= 108
L + 15 <= 54
L <= 39 in

To satisfy both of these conditions requires that L <= 39 in.

Answer: 39 inches

Which is bigger, a third of 45 or one-sixth c<br> 138?
Ksju [112]

Applying the knowledge of fractions, the bigger one is: one-sixth of 138.

<h3>What are Fractions?</h3>

Fractions can be defined as a part of a digit or number, and are not whole numbers. For example, a third is 1/3, one-sixth is 1/6, which are both fractions.

Therefore, let's evaluate each statement:

1/3 of 45 = 1/3 × 45 = 15

1/6 of 138 = 1/6 × 138 = 23

Therefore, the bigger of the two is: one-sixth of 138.

Whats 12*5+55= <br><br> ill mark asa brainliest
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
First do PEMDAS
There's no parenthesis. So move on to exponent. There's also no exponents. Move on to  multiplication. There it is. 

12×5=60.

There's no division so now next one is addition. Hey look! There is addition. 

60+55=115.

So 115 is your answer.
