Answer:
New area: 12ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 of 9 is 3
1/3 of 12 is 4
Area = l x w
so 3 x 4 = 12
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangular prism is also know as a cuboid.
The dimensions of the rectangular prism shaped bath tub are 5½ ft * 2½ ft * 2¾ ft.
The volume of a cuboid (rectangular prism) is given as:
V = L * B * H
Hence, the volume of the bath tub is:
V = 5½ * 2½ * 2¾
V = 11/2 * 5/2 * 11/4
V = 605 / 16 = 
The volume of the bath tub is 
-18-(-12)=-6
Since there is two negative sign, it turns into positive meaning the -12 becomes positive 12 and the -18 stays same. So -18+12=-6 because 18 is bigger than 12 and it's negative so the final answer should be negative.
Hint: when you see two negative sign just turn them into plus sign.
26% = 26%/100%
26/100, 13/50
answer is 13/50
