P of triangle = a + b = c = 90

<span>ratio 3:4:5
so a = 3x, b = 4x , c = 5x

3x + 4x + 5x = 90
12x = 90
x = 90/12 = 7.5

a = 3x = 3 * 7.5 = 22.5
b = 4x = 4 * 7.5 = 30
c = 5x = 5 * 7.5 = 37.5

Answer:
1st side = 22.5
2nd side = 30
3rd side = 37.5

Double check: 22.5 + 30 + 37.5 = 90 (perimeter)</span>

OLEGan [10]

Both 17/10 and 2 4/5 should be rounded up in preparation for this estimation.

17/10 is close to 2 and 2 4/5 is close to 3. Thus, your estimated answer should be
2/3, or approx. 0.6666....

Exact answer: divide 17/10 by 14/5. LCD is 10, so convert 14/5 to 28/10.

Now divide 17/10 by 28/10. Answer: 17/28 = approx. = 0.607 approx.

These two results are comparable: 0.6666.... and 0.6071 ....
