Answer:

the maximum number of crates that can be stacked between the floor and ceiling

\frac{height \hspace{0.1cm} of  \hspace{0.1cm} ammunition \hspace{0.1cm} box}{height \hspace{0.1cm} of  \hspace{0.1cm} each \hspace{0.1cm} crate}  = \frac{10 \hspace{0.1cm}  feet}{12 \hspace{0.1cm}  inches}  =  \frac{10 \times 12  \hspace{0.1cm} inches }{12  \hspace{0.1cm} inches}  = 10 \hspace{0.1cm}  crates

where 1 foot  = 12 inches. SO the answer is that a maximum of 10 crates can be stacked from floor to ceiling.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the maximum number of crates that can be stacked between the floor and ceiling

\frac{height \hspace{0.1cm} of  \hspace{0.1cm} ammunition \hspace{0.1cm} box}{height \hspace{0.1cm} of  \hspace{0.1cm} each \hspace{0.1cm} crate}  = \frac{10 \hspace{0.1cm}  feet}{12 \hspace{0.1cm}  inches}  =  \frac{10 \times 12  \hspace{0.1cm} inches }{12  \hspace{0.1cm} inches}  = 10 \hspace{0.1cm}  crates

where 1 foot  = 12 inches

Which number completes the inequality?<br> 2/3 &lt; &lt;7/9<br> 3/5<br> 6/9<br> 3/4<br> 6/7
Sati [7]

Answer:

  3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be helpful to use a common denominator for comparison. That denominator can be 100, meaning we can make them all decimal fractions. Approximate (2 digit) values are good enough for the purpose.

  2/3 ≈ 0.67 . . . . left end of the range

  7/9 ≈ 0.78 . . . . right end of the range

  3/5 = 0.60

  6/9 ≈ 0.67 . . . . = 2/3, so is not greater than 2/3

  3/4 = 0.75

  6/7 ≈ 0.86

The only decimal value between 0.67 and 0.78 is 0.75, corresponding to the fraction 3/4.

  2/3 < 3/4 < 7/9
