The answer you are looking for is 1.
When you divide a fraction by another fraction, you flip the second one (make it the reciplical) and multiply straight across. 1/2 * 2/1 = 2/2, which simplified (divided by 2/2) is 1.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
<u>45.5 m²</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Area (Shaded) = Area (Rectangle) - Area (Trapezoid)</u>
- Area (Shaded) = lb - 1/2 x (a + b) x h
- Area (Shaded) = 17 × 13 - 1/2 × (10 + 17) × 13
- Area (Shaded) = 13 (17 - 27/2)
- Area (Shaded) = 13 × 7/2
- Area (Shaded) = 91/2
- Area (Shaded) = <u>45.5 m²</u>
