The tangent of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side. If d is the distance to the goal post, then
  tan(10°) = (3.33 m)/d
  d = (3.33 m)/tan(10°)
  d ≈ 18.9 m

The appropriate choice is
  D) 18.9

This calculator will first reduce the improper fraction to lowest terms by dividing numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor (GCF). The GCF of 45 and 10 is 5. The remainder is 1. With 1 as the numerator and 2 as the reduced denominator, the fraction part of the mixed number is 1/2.

Trevor plans on buying a car. Four banks offer the annual interest rates shown.
mote1985 [20]

Solution

In order to find  greatest to least number, we have to convert the given fractions into decimals.

3 \frac{1}{10} % = 3 + 1/10 = 3 + 0.10 = 3.10%

3 \frac{2}{5}% = 3 + 2/5 = 3 + 0.40 = 3.40%

3 \frac{1}{4} %= 3 + 0.25 = 3.25%

3 \frac{1}{3}% = 3 + 0.33 = 3.33%

Now we can easily, compare the numbers and write from greatest to least.

3.40%, 3.33%, 3.25%, 3.10%

Greatest to least  = 3 2/5%, 3 1/3%3, 3 1/4%,  1/10%,

Thank you :)
