First, convert 4 feet into inches - 48 inches. Then, divide 48 by 14 to get 3.43, so he can have 3 14-inch long pieces. To get the left over out of a foot, take 14 x 3 to get 42, then subtract 42 from your original 48 inches to get 6 inches left, which is half of a foot.
3 1/6 / 1/3 =
19/6 / 1/3 =
19/6 * 3/1 = 57/6 = 9 1/2 gallons per square foot
Answer:
40/17.00 = 2.35294 ( then round to whatever is required )
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume ladder length is 14 ft and that the top end of the ladder is 5 feet above the ground.
Find the distance the bottom of the ladder is from the base of the wall.
Picture a right triangle with hypotenuse 14 feet and that the side opposite the angle is h. Then sin theta = h / 14, or theta = arcsin 5/14. theta is
0.365 radian. Then the dist. of the bot. of the lad. from the base of the wall is
14cos theta = 14cos 0.365 rad = 13.08 feet. This does not seem reasonable; the ladder would fall if it were already that close to the ground.
Ensure that y ou have copied this problem accurately from the original.
If it is marked down 25% and 25% equals 25/100 then you simply take 39.59 x 25/100
39.59 x 25/100 = 9.90
and then you subtract that from the original price
39.59 - 9.90 = $29.69
after it is marked down, the price is $29.69
