Answer:
Draw the number line like in the picture.
Step-by-step explanation:
√5 is about 2.236, meaning it's kind of close to 2.25.
√7 is about 2.646, meaning it's very close to 2.625.
It is asking what 7/8 of 2/3 is. The "of" means you need to multiply. 7/13 is the answer.
I think Great Falls' average wind speed is greater than Chicago's by 2.7 miles
Let's take an example to illustrate this case:
<span>positive fraction = 2/7
</span>
<span>negative fraction = - 3/5
Now we need to subtract </span><span>- 3/5 from 2/7
Right?
2/7 - (-3/5) = 2/7 + 3/5
here we need to unify the denominators as follows:
the lowest common factor between 7 and 5 is 35
2/7 = 10/35
3/5 = 21/35
Now back to </span><span>2/7 + 3/5:
</span><span><span>2/7 + 3/5 = 10/35 + 21/35 = (10+21)/35 = 31/35
That's it
Hope that helps you</span>
