Answer and explanation:
Benchmark fractions are fractions that are used as references in measuring other fractions. They are easily estimated and so can be used in measuring more "specific" fractions such as 1/5, 7/9, 3/7, 1/3 etc. If I wanted to measure 1 1/3cm for instance using a calibrated ruler, having centimeter measurements, I would first find 1cm on the ruler and then find half of one centimeter. Seeing that half is bigger than 1/3 but close, I could then estimate 1/3 to be somewhere less than 1/2 but a bit close to it

Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not good at explaining but I'll try.
One bag weighs 1/4 pound meaning that half a bag would weigh 1/8 pound

Answer:
Original garden: 42 feet
Enlarged garden: 98 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = length (2) + width (2)
<u>Original perimeter:</u>
P = 15(2) + 6(2)
P = 30 + 12
P = 42 feet
In this problem, similar is proportional, so the new garden will be proportional to the old one.
If the original length was 15 and the new length is 35, then 15 would have had to have been multiplied by 2 1/3. That means you need to multiply 6 by 2 1/3, which is 14. That means the dimensions of the enlarged yard is 14 (width) × 35 (length).
<u>Enlarged perimeter</u>
P = 35(2) + 14(2)
P = 70 + 28
P = 98 feet
Answer:
altruism means selfrecklessness,
Step-by-step explanation:
example: a guy is walking down the street when he sees a guy being robbed, he then very selfrecklessnessly takes a Winchester M1887 combat shotgun out from his guitar and proceeds to wack the man trying to rob the man with the good stuff on top of his head with the broad end of his shotgun while calling 911 with his remote controlled jenga blocks
