Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
A 2.4 meter log is split into the ratio 7:5. Each unit part is one x-increment, so the log is split into 7 x-increments and 5 x-increments.
Find the longer length:
- 2.4 into 7:5
- 2.4 = 7x + 5x
- 2.4 = 12x
- x = 2.4/12
- x = 0.2
Now, we must find the longer length, 7x.
The longer length is 1.4 meters, but we want it in cm.
There are 100 centimeters in a meter.
- 1.4 meters = 1.4 * 100
- 1.4 meters = 140 centimeters
The longer length is 140 centimeters.
If "4/2/7" is all we have to work with, then PEMDAS rules will save the day. Do the division from left to right.
4/2 becomes 2. Then we have 2/7, a proper fraction. I don't see where an improper fraction would come from in this case.
