Answer:

About 6 inches tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

One book has a thickness of 2 $\frac{3}{7}$ inches.

Another book has a thickness of 3.56 inches

Converting 2 $\frac{3}{7}$ inches to decimals will give; 2.4285714286 inches

If the books are stacked together, they become 2.4285714286 inches + 3.56 inches = 5.988571429 inches tall or about 6 inches tall (answer rounded up to nearest whole number).

A pencil factory makes 50 cases of pencils in 5 hours.

Oduvanchick [21]

If a pencil factory makes 50 cases of pencils in 5 hours. Let's first find out how many cases are made per hour.

50 ÷ 5 = 10 cases per hour

Now you need to know how long it will take to make 55 cases. Since we already know that it takes 5 hours to make 50 cases. So you need to know how many cases for the extra 5 cases. If it takes 1 hour to make 10 cases, it would only take 1/2 hour to make 5 cases.

So it would take 5 1/2 hours to make 55 cases.

Hope this helps. :)

4(x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find to GCF of 4x+16.

Now factor out the GCF by dividing each term in the expression by 4.

The equivalent expression is 4(x+4).
