Is 7/8 greater than 3/4

Mathematics

Answer: yes

Step-by-step explanation:

convert 3/4 so the denominator is the same for both fractions. you would just double the fraction : 6/8

now compare 7/8 and 6/8

7/8 is closer to a whole so yes it is greater x

Answer: Yes

Step-by-step explanation: To see which is greater, notice that 3/4 and 7/8 are unlike fractions so we need to get a common denominator.

The common denominator of 8 and 4 is the least common multiple of 8 and 4 or 8. Notice that our first fraction 7/8 already has an 8 in the denominator so it stays the same. To get a 8 in the denominator of 3/4, we multiply the numerator and the denominator by 2 which gives us 6/8.

Notice that we now have like fractions since both fractions have an 8 in the denominator. To compare like fractions, we simply look at the numerators. Here, since 7 is bigger than 6, 7/8 is greater than 6/8.

So yes, 7/8 is greater than 3/4.

Please please help me find the volume and surface area i’ll give brainliest
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Area: 272ft²

Volume = 82.6236447189ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

AREA

The area of a square pyramid is found by combining the area of the base and the area of the triangular faces:

Area of base = area of square = L² = 8² = 16ft²

Area of one triangular face = (1/2)bh = (1/2)(8)(16) = 64ft²

There are four triangular faces so the total area = 16+4(64)= 16+256= 272 ft²

VOLUME

The volume of a square pyramid = (a²)(h/3), where a is the length of the base and h is the length from the top of the pyramid to the middle of the square.

We are given a, but not h. To find h, we must imagine a right-angled triangle within the pyramid, where 16ft is the hypotenuse, h is the height and the base is half of a (since the base is a square and the distance is from the edge to the middle). We can then use pythagorus's theorem to find h:

A²=B²+C²

16²=(8/2)²+h²

256=16+h²

h=√240

h=15.4919333848ft

Knowing h, we can find the volume:

Volume = (a²)(h/3)

Volume = (8²)(15.4919333848/3)

Volume = (16)(5.16397779493)

Volume = 82.6236447189ft³

In the figure below, find the exact value of y. (Do not approximate your answer.)
e-lub [12.9K]

The exact value of the y in the similar right triangle is 2.2360679775 units

<h3 /><h3>How to find the side of a triangle?</h3>

The triangles are similar.

Similar triangles have corresponding sides of equal ratio.

The corresponding angles of similar triangle are equal.

Therefore, using similar ratio,

y / 5 = 1 / y

cross multiply

y × y = 5 × 1

y² = 5

square root both sides

y = √5

Therefore,

y = 2.2360679775 units
