A=LxW, but first you should convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions:
7/3 x 27/5 = 189/15 = 12 6/10 = 12 3/5 square inches

P = L+L+W+W here I would convert to improper fractions, but then you need to find a common denominator.
P = 7/3 + 7/3 + 27/5 + 27/5 = 14/3 + 54/5 = 70/15 + 162/15 = 232/15 = 15 7/15 inches

Area: If you multiply 2 1/3 by 5 2/5, you get an answer of about: 12.6, which means the area is about: 12.6in. squared.
Perimeter: If you add 2 1/3+ 2 1/3+ 5 2/5+ 5 2/5 you get an answer of about: 15.47. So, the perimeter is about 15.47in.

Note: If you aren't allowed to use a calculator on this test, you should probably multiply the numbers yourself so you get show the work and get the answer in a fraction, which is probably what they want. If you are allowed to use calculators, all the information you need is right here.

PLEASE HELP ME Multiply the monomials: a2x5b, −0.6axb2 and 0.6a2b3

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

$-0.36 a^{5}b^{6} x^{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$a^2x^5b,,\ -0.6axb^2,\ and\ 0.6a^2b^3$

Required

Multiply

The above can be written as

$a^2x^5b * -0.6axb^2\ * \ 0.6a^2b^3$

Split the above expression

$a^2*x^5*b * -0.6*a*x*b^2\ * \ 0.6*a^2*b^3$

Collect like terms

$-0.6 * 0.6 * a^2*a*a^2*b *b^2 *b^3*x^5*x$

Apply first law on indices

$-0.36 * a^{2+1+2} *b^{1+2+3} *x^{5+1}$

$-0.36 * a^{5} *b^{6} *x^{6}$

$-0.36 a^{5}b^{6} x^{6}$

Hence, $a^2x^5b * -0.6axb^2\ * \ 0.6a^2b^3$ is equivalent to $-0.36 a^{5}b^{6} x^{6}$
