How do I write a fraction for 4.8

1 answer:

3 0

If you read 4.8 out loud it should be "four and eight tenths." This is always a good start when changing a decimal into a fraction. 4 8/10 is a mixed number, so to further simplify it as a mixed number we leave the 4 alone and reduce the fraction 8/10. So we can reduce 8/10 to 4/5. Then you bring the 4 back and put 4/5 with it. So 4.8 as a fraction is 4 4/5.

I hope that helped!

A plane takes off and flies at an angle of 11° with the ground. When it reaches an elevation of 500 ft, what is the distance flo

Answer:

It had flown 2620 ft along the diagonal.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the plane is taking off it forms we can form a triangle with it's height, horizontal distance and diagonal distance, which can be seen in the attached drawing. We can use the sine relation on the right triangle to determine "x", as shown below:

sin(11°) = 500/x

x*sin(11) = 500

x = 500/[sin(11)] = 2620 ft

It had flown 2620 ft along the diagonal.
