<span>The problem says that Donovan is using similar rectangles, so you can calculate the length of the second rectangle, by using the similarity concept.

 We have that the first rectangle </span>is 2 inches wide and 6 inches long, and the second rectangle must has<span> 5 inches wide. Then:

 2/5=6/L  (L: </span>the length of the second rectangle).
<span> 2L=6x5
 2L=30
 L=30/2
 L=15 inches

 H</span><span>ow long must the second rectangle be? 
</span><span>
 The answer is: The second rectangle must be 15 inches long.

If a girl read 3/8 of a chapter book and another girl read 3/6 of a chapter book which girl read more pages
fredd [130]

Answer:

The girl which read 3/6 of a chapter book read more pages than the other girl.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to compare between \frac{3}{8} \ and \ \frac{3}{6}

so, the denominator of both fractions should be the same number

Factor of 6 = 1 * 2 *          * 3

Factor of 8 = 1 * 2 * 2 * 2

-------------------------------------------

The common denominator  = 1 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 = 24

\frac{3}{8} = \frac{3*3}{3*8} =\frac{9}{24} \\\frac{3}{6} = \frac{4*3}{4*6} =\frac{12}{24}

Then compare between \frac{9}{24} \ and \frac{12}{24}  \\

So, the fraction of the great numerator will be the great fraction

\frac{12}{24}  > \frac{9}{24}

∴ \frac{3}{6} > \frac{3}{8}

==================================================

<u>Another solution:</u>

Convert both fractions to decimal:

3/8 = 0.375

3/6 = 0.5

0.5 > 0.375

===================================================

<u>Third Solution: </u>

As the numerators are equal

The fraction of least denominator is the great fraction

So, 3/6 > 3/8
