Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- 5/6 ÷ 3/4 =
- 5/6 × 4/3 =
- 20/18 =
- 10/9
Because the window is 4 feet and you need it to cover the window and the floor, you could start with the window. 4 feet at 12 inches per foot is 48 inches already. Then you would add the distance between the window and the floor, 21/2 feet is 10.5 feet. 10.5 * 12 inches is 126 inches. 126+48=174. You need 174 inches. See my pic

Answer: The rectangles are <u>
not</u>
similar</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
Divide the vertical sides to get the fraction 18/7
Divide the horizontal sides to get the fraction 30/6
If the rectangles were similar, then 18/7 = 30/6 is a possibility (there's one more possibility but we'll get to it later).
If 18/7 = 30/6 were true, then we should be able to cross multiply and get another true statement. Let's find out
18/7 = 30/6
18*6 = 7*30
108 = 210
We get a false statement, which means the original equation is false.
-----------------------
Now let's say we rotated the bottom rectangle so that the '7's were horizontal and the '6's were vertical. We'll divide the corresponding horizontal sides and vertical sides to get the two fractions of 30/7 and 18/6
Let's see if we have a true equation or not
30/7 = 18/6
30*6 = 7*18
180 = 126
Like before, we end up with a false equation which means the original is false.
No matter how we rotate the rectangles, we do <u>not</u> end up with similar figures.
-----------------------
Here's another way to see we don't have similar rectangles. We'll form the fraction 18/30 based on dividing the vertical and horizontal sides of the upper rectangle. The lower rectangle gives us 7/6
18/30 = 7/6
18*6 = 30*7
108 = 210
This is more evidence that the rectangles aren't similar. The same will happen if we tried 18/30 = 6/7
the answer is 60 :) good luckStep-by-step explanation:
Well I am assuming you want to compare them or something so yeah:
You have to find a common denominator of 4 & 6, so you could multiply them together, this makes 24. Because you have to do the same thing to the top and the bottom, you have to multiply 2/4 (which is now 2/24) by 6, and the 2/6 (which again is 2/24) by 4 which leaves you with 12/24 (2/4) and 8/24 (2/6).
We can simplify these fractions by dividing them, but as you may know 12 is half of 24 so 12/24 would also be 1/2.
If you keep dividing by 2 you will find that 8/24 is also equal to 1/3. This is easier to find out by the beginning number but I mentioned it anyway because I didn't understand what you were asking.
Overall if you noticed when comparing 2/4 and 2/6 we found that Mei Lyn painted more wall than Mario.
