Because 1/2 ≠ 1/6.
We know that 1/6 < 1/2, so we can set up an equation to see how many copies are needed for them to be equal.
(1/6)x = 1/2
[(1/6)x] × 6 = [1/2] × 6
x = 6/2 = 3
This equation shows that 1/6 × 3 = 1/2, therefore we need 3 copies of 1/6 to equal 1 copy of 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:
Add 5ft 7in and 4ft 8in together
5ft 7in + 4ft 8in = 10ft 3in
The tax is 6.5% OF the listed price. "OF" in math means multiply.
First convert the percentage to a decimal
6.5% = .065
Then multiply .065*813.95 = 52.90675. This is the tax.
Simply add the tax onto the cost
813.95 + 52.90675 = $866.86 (rounded)
