Answer:

13/15

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 13/15 because:

1) In order to figure out what 7/9 + 2/3 is, we need to find the common denominator. The common denominator is 9 because 3 contains the factor 9.

7/9 + 6/9 = 13/9

We need to multiply the denominator to get to 9: 3 x 3 = 9. We have to multiply the numerator as well: 2 x 3 = 6.

2) Next, we have to divide 13/9 and 5/3. In order to divide we have to find the reciprocal of the second number. Reciprocal means to flip the fraction. The reciprocal of 5/3 is 3/5.

3) Finally, we just have to multiply 13/9 and 3/5 which is 39/45. 39/45 in simplest form is 13/15.

Hope this helps! :D

Wally wants to determine the height of a statue that casts a 164-inch shadow by comparing it to his own height and shadow length

nataly862011 [7]

We have been given that Wally wants to determine the height of a statue that casts a 164-inch shadow by comparing it to his own height and shadow length. Wally is 68 inches tall, casts a shadow that is 41 inches in length.

We will use proportions to solve for the height of the statue because proportions state that ratio between two proportional quantities is same.

$\frac{\text{Height of statue}}{\text{Shadow of statue}}=\frac{\text{Height of Wally}}{\text{Shadow of Wally}}$

Upon substituting our given values in above equation, we will get:

$\frac{\text{Height of statue}}{\text{164 cm}}=\frac{\text{68 inch}}{\text{41 inch}}$

$\frac{\text{Height of statue}}{\text{164 cm}}\times \text{164 cm}=\frac{\text{68 inch}}{\text{41 inch}}\times \text{164 cm}$

$\text{Height of statue}=\frac{\text{68 inch}}{1}\times 4$

$\text{Height of statue}=272\text{ inches}$

Therefore, the height of the statue is 272 inches.
