Over the weekend halverson had put together 3/16 if a jigsaw puzzle while jamie put together 10/16 of the puzzle. Who had coplet
1 answer:
Answer:
Jamie. by 7/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Halverson completed: 3/16
Jamie completed: 10/16.
To understand who completed more, look at the denominator. The common denominator is 16. Assume a puzzle has 16 pieces and Halverson did 3 out of 16 and Jamie did 10 out of 16. This means Jamie did more.
If you want to know by how much Jamie did more, it would be the difference of both the fraction. This means that 10 done by Jamie minus 3 done by Halverson, which is 7. So 7 out of 16 is the difference.
7 out of 16 can be written as 7/16

Since we know that triangle inequality theorem states that sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than third side.
Now let us see if it is true for our given side lengths.
Now let us try with another pair.
We can see that sum of 5.6 and 4 is less than 10.6. Therefore, 10.6 cm, 5.6 cm and 4.0 cm can not be side lengths of a triangle.
