The length of the ladder is 13 because: using the pythagorean theorem
a² + b² = c²
5² + 12² = c²
25+144 = 169
169 = c²
Then figure the square root of 169.
13 x 13 = 169
Hope this helps :)

rjkz [21]
One cat has four paws, so there are 120/4=30 cats.  If a "set" of cats is two uncool cats and three cool cats, there are five cats in a set, so there are 30/5=6 sets.  Since each of the six sets contains three cool cats, there are 18 cool cats in the family.

I have four friends, and 3 cookies, how many cookies do I give each person. What do I have left over, and what is the fraction?
andriy [413]

Answer:

3/4 of cookie per each friend.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you have 4 friends, and only have 3 cookies,

the fraction is 3/4. why? because 3/4= 0.75

which makes 0.75x 4 friends= 3 cookies . Each friend will get 0.75 or 75% of cookie which is the same as 3/4.
