well, we know the ceiling is 6+2/3 high, and Eduardo has 4+1/2 yards only, how much more does he need, well, is simply their difference, let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then subtract.
![\stackrel{mixed}{6\frac{2}{3}}\implies \cfrac{6\cdot 3+2}{3}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{20}{3}} ~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{4\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{9}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{20}{3}-\cfrac{9}{2}\implies \stackrel{using ~~\stackrel{LCD}{6}}{\cfrac{(2\cdot 20)-(3\cdot 9)}{6}}\implies \cfrac{40-27}{6}\implies \cfrac{13}{6}\implies\blacktriangleright 2\frac{1}{6} \blacktriangleleft](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cstackrel%7Bmixed%7D%7B6%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B6%5Ccdot%203%2B2%7D%7B3%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7Bimproper%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B20%7D%7B3%7D%7D%20~%5Chfill%20%5Cstackrel%7Bmixed%7D%7B4%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B4%5Ccdot%202%2B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7Bimproper%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B9%7D%7B2%7D%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%20~%5Cdotfill%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Ccfrac%7B20%7D%7B3%7D-%5Ccfrac%7B9%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7Busing%20~~%5Cstackrel%7BLCD%7D%7B6%7D%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B%282%5Ccdot%2020%29-%283%5Ccdot%209%29%7D%7B6%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B40-27%7D%7B6%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B13%7D%7B6%7D%5Cimplies%5Cblacktriangleright%202%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B6%7D%20%5Cblacktriangleleft)
If Carly broke the record by 1.3 seconds and Carly's time was 55.7 the old record would be Carly's time plus 1.3 seconds for the time that Carly broke the record by, so... 57 seconds was the old record
Answer:
The total area is 300 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the area of the rectangle
A = l*w = 24*10 = 240
Then find the area of the triangle on the top
A = 1/2 bh
The base is 24 and the height is 15-10 = 5
A = 1/2 (24)*5 = 60
Add them together
240+60 = 300
The total area is 300 ft^2
(a/b) x (c/d) = (a*c)/(b*d)
Therefore:
(9/4) x (1/3) = (9*1)/(4*3) = 9/12 = 3/4
Answer:
3/4
