2.125 = 17/8 = 21/8 as a fraction


Step by Step Solution

To convert the decimal 2.125 to a fraction follow these steps:


Step 1: Write down the number as a fraction of one:


2.125 = 2.125/1


Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:


As we have 3 numbers after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 1000. So,


2.125/1 = (2.125 x 1000)/(1 x 1000) = 2125/1000.


Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(2125,1000) = 125. So,


(2125÷125)/(1000÷125) = 17/8 when reduced to the simplest form.


As the numerator is greater than the denominator, we have an IMPROPER fraction, so we can also express it as a MIXED NUMBER, thus 2125/1000 is also equal to 2 1/8 when expressed as a mixed number.


Hope that helps feel free to ask me questions

Answer:

8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

x is similar to the side 12cm.

We know the second triangle is rotated counter-clockwise from the first because similar triangles have the same angle measurements.

Since the angle in the first triangle between 9cm and 15cm is 53°, it can't be similar to the angle between x and the hypotenuse in the second triangle.

Find the scale factor:

Triangle 1/Triangle 2

Divide two similar sides.

6/9 = 2/3

Multiply the scale factor by the similar side to find x.

x = 12*(2/3)

x = 8

S is inversely proportional to t<br> When s = 0.5, t = 7<br> Work out s when t = 0.8
defon

Given:

s is inversely proportional to t.

When s = 0.5, t = 7.

To find:

The value of s when t=0.8.

Solution:

s is inversely proportional to t.

s\propto \dfrac{1}{t}

s=\dfrac{k}{t}       ...(i)

Where, k is the constant of proportionality.

Putting s=0.5 and t=7, we get

0.5=\dfrac{k}{7}

0.5\times 7=k

3.5=k

Putting k=3.5 in (i), we get

s=\dfrac{3.5}{t}

This is the equation of proportionality.

Putting t=0.8, we get

s=\dfrac{3.5}{0.8}

s=4.375&#10;

Therefore, the value of s is 4.375 when t=0.8.
