Nick's dad wanted to measure the length of his backyard and asked Nick to do this with his footsteps. Since it was winter, they

were able to count their footprints in the snow starting from the end of the backyard moving in the same direction towards the front. In some places, Nick and his dad's footprints coincided. Eventually, they counted 67 footprints, including their first step. What is the length of the backyard in meters, if the Nick's footstep is 51 cm long and his dad's is 68 cm long?

Answer:

2244 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The first first thing we must do is find the LCM of the following numbers

(51; 68) = 204.

This means that the first time they coincide is at 204.

Now, since his steps always coincide after 204

In Nick's case

Nick's 204 ÷ 51 = 4th step

and in the case of the father

204 ÷ 68 of his father = 3rd step.

Which means that in the 204 cm distance, there will be a total of 6 foot steps, except in the first 204 cm when your "initial" step is counted.

Replacing these values we have that the total distance will be:

67-1 (initial step) / (6 * 204) = 2244 cm

Find two positive angles and two negative angles that are coterminal with the given angle and less than 1080 but greater than 72
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is 450°, 810°, -270° and -630°.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given scenario, the calculation of the two positive angles and two negative angles i.e. coterminal is as follows:

The coterminal angles are the angles in which the difference could be 360 degrees or the multiples of 360 degrees

For 90 degrees, the two positive angles are

a. 90° + 360°

= 450°

450° + 360°

= 810°

b. The two negative angles are

= 90° - 360°

= -270°

-270° - 360°

= -630°

George went to the supermarket and he bought bananas for his monkeys. They were $5.99. He got a family discount because his wife
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

$4.49

Step-by-step explanation:

If bananas are $5.99, we need to find 75% of the price, or 25% off. There are two ways we can do this, I'll show the more detailed way. First, we multiply 5.99 by .25 to find 25% of it. We got ~1.50. This means that 25% of 5.99 is 1.50. Now, we take away 1.50 from 5.99. This gets us $4.49. That means the price of the bananas with the discount is $4.49. The other way we can do this is multiply 5.99 and .75 (because 25+75=100). This gets us 4.4925, which rounds to $4.49. I hope this helps!

How do you write 35 over 20 As a percentage
lara31 [8.8K]
In order to write \frac{35}{20} as a percentage, we must first convert the fraction into a decimal. We can do that simply by dividing.

35 / 20 = 1.75

In order to convert a fraction to a decimal, we must multiply it by 100

1.75 * 100 = 175%

\frac{35}{20} as a percentage is 175%.
Hope that helped =)
