The smallest is 1/(5+1) = 1/6 of the total length, so is (276 in)/6 = 46 in.
The largest is 5*46 in = 230 in.

The two pieces are 46 in and 230 in.

On a map the perimeter of the is 0.251 meters. The actual perimeters of the park is 1,000 times as large. What is the actual per
raketka [301]

The actual perimeter of the park is \boxed{\bf251{\text{ meters}}}.

Further explanation:

Given:

The perimeter of the park is on a map 0.251{\text{ meters}}. The measured perimeter of the park is 1000 times as large.  

Calculation:

The distance of the closed figure is called as the perimeter.

The perimeter of the attached Figure 1 can be calculated as,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Perimeter}}&=a+a+b+b\\&=2\left({a+b}\right)\\\end{aligned}

Here, x,y{\text{ and }}z is the length of the shape.

From place value chart, 10 tens is equal to 1 hundreds.

Tenths are one place after the decimal and hundredths are two places after the decimal.

Two tenths can be written in the form of decimal as follows:

\dfrac{2}{{10}}=0.2

Five hundredths can be written in the form of decimal as follows:

\dfrac{5}{{100}}=0.05

One thousandths can be written in the form of decimal as follows:

\dfrac{1}{{1000}}=0.001

Therefore, the number 0.251 can be written as,

\begin{aligned}0.251&=\frac{2}{{10}}+\frac{5}{{100}}+\frac{1}{{1000}}\\&=0.2+0.05+0.001\\&=0.251\\\end{aligned}

On the map the perimeter of the park is 0.251{\text{ meters}}.

Let {\text{P}} be the actual perimeter of the park.

The actual perimeter of the park can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{P}}&=0.251\times1000\\&=251{\text{ meters}}\\\end{aligned}

Thus, the actual perimeter of the park is \boxed{\bf251{\text{ meters}}}.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given ratio is \frac{18}{27}

9 is the common factor of 18 and 27

divide numerator and denominator by 9

\frac{18/9}{27/9} =\frac{2}{3}

hence \frac{2}{3} is proportion with \frac{18}{27}

Can a chord also be classified as a radius?
klemol [59]
No.

A chord is a straight segment that joins two points of the circumference. It starts at a point in the circumference and ends at other point in the circumference.

The radius goes from the center of the circle (which is not on the circumference) to one point of the circumference.

The diameter is a chord (the largest chord possible); but not the radius.
