Answer:

6 3/8 inches (6.375 inches)

Step-by-step explanation:

For simplicity we'll assume that both the photo and the poster board are square.  To determine the width of the border, subtract 8.5 inches from the poster board width 21.25 inches, obtaining 12.75 inches, and then divide that 12.75 inches by 2:  6.375 inches (6 3/8 inches).  

Set the photo 6 3/8 inches from each edge of the poster board.

It would help if you find common denominator... 12
so 1/3 times 4 both the numerator and denominator
4/12

and 3/4 times by 3 both the numerator and denominator
9/12

the recipe calls for 4/12 cup of oil and you have 9/12

two batches would be 8/12 cups of oil, you have 9/12 that is just enough for the recipe for two batches...

now to simplify it again, 1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3 and 2/3 is less than 3/4 
the answer would be the upper right

The length of a rectangle is one inch less than three times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 118 inches, find the
IgorLugansk [536]
We can set up the width a X and, from the description the length would be 3X-1. The perimeter of a rectangle is determined by 2XL + 2Xw. Plugging into the equation 2(3X-1) + 2(X) = 118. Next distribute to get 6X-2 + 2X = 118. Combine like terms to get 8X = 120. Divide by 8 to get X = 15. The width is 15. The length is 3(15)-1 or 44. 88 +30 = 118
