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.

soldi70 [24.7K]

The question is an illustration of scale drawing

The character have to travel 8.5 km in the game to visit all three destinations and return to their starting point

<h3>How to calculate the actual distance</h3>

The distance on the map are given as:

A =2 cm

B = 8 cm

C = 7 cm

The total distance on the map would be:

Total =2cm + 8cm + 7cm

Total =17cm

The actual distance between the store and the dungeon is 4 kilometers.

This means that:

B' =4km

So, we have:

Scale = B : B'

Scale = 8cm : 4km'

Represent the required actual distance with x.

So, we have:

17cm : x = 8cm : 4km

Express as fraction

\frac{x}{17} = \frac 48

Multiply both sides by 17

x = \frac 48 * 17

x = 8.5

Hence, the actual distance travelled is 8.5 km
