according to the pictures I have sent you can solve it! be successful
It would be 0.38 the 8 is repeating
247- 538 = -291
If you line them up in that order 247 you'll have to borrow. Your answer would be -291
-538
The only way to not get -291 is to flip the two numbers.
This equation basically says that a number plus 3/5 equals 2 so we can simply:
2 - 3/5 = x
Therefore x equals 1 & 2/5 or 1.4
Just multiply !!
so 1 inch = 5 miles
3.5 inch must be 3.5×5 = 17.5 miles
so the answer is 17.5 miles !!
