John has a rectangular-shaped field whose length is 62.5 yards and width is 45.3 yards. The area of the field is ________ square

oee [108]

Area = 2831.25 square yards

Perimeter =215.6 yards

EXPLANATION

The area and perimeter of a rectangular field are found using the formula for finding the area and perimeter of a rectangle respectively.

That means, area of the rectangular field is given by the formula,

$A= l\times w$

We just have to substitute
$l=62.5$ and $w= 45.3$ into the given formula and evaluate.

This implies that;

$A= 62.5\times 45.3$

This gives the area of the rectangular-shaped field to be;

$A= 2831.25$ square yards.

Now for the perimeter, we use the formula

$P=2w +2l$

Or

$P=2(w +l)$

Substituting the values for the length and width gives,

$P=2(62.5+45.3)$

$\Rightarrow P=2(107.8)$

$\Rightarrow P=215.6$

Hence the perimeter of the rectangular shaped field is 215.6 yards.

Pls help pls help me Compare the following 2/-3, -4/5, 21/-32, -15/24

mote1985 [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

to compare them, we should all bring to the same denominator.

the lcm (lowest common multiplier) is the that denominator.

let's use the approach of the prime factors :

3 : 3

5 : 5

32 : 2×2×2×2×2

24 : 2×2×2×3

the lcm is the combination of the longest "streaks" of the prime factors.

so,

2×2×2×2×2 × 3 × 5 = 32×15 = 480

2/-3 = -2/3 = -320/480 (as 3×160 = 480)

-4/5 = -4×96 / 5×96 = -384/480 (as 5×96 = 480)

21/-32 = -21/32 = -315/480 (as 32×15 = 480)

-15/24 = -15×20 / 24×20 = -300/480 (24×20 = 480)

-384/480 < -320/480 < -315/480 < -300/480

we can say

-4/5 < -2/3 < -21/32 < -15/24
