Komodo dragons are the heaviest lizards on earth. A baby Komodo dragon is 1 3/4 feet long when it hatches. It’s mother is 8 3/4

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

An adult male Komodo dragon is $10\frac12$ feet.

Therefore the male is $1\frac34$ feet longer than the mother.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A baby dragon is $1\frac34$ feet long.

It's mother is $8\frac34$ feet.

An adult male Komodo dragon is 6 times as long as the baby Komodo dragon.

So, an adult male Komodo dragon is =(6× $1\frac34$ ) feet

$=6\times \frac74$ feet

$=\frac61\times \frac74$ feet

= $\frac {21}2$ feet.

$=10\frac12$ feet.

$\therefore 10\frac 12- 8\frac34$

$=\frac{21}{2}-\frac{35}4$

$=\frac{21\times 2-35\times 1}{4}$

$=\frac{42-35}{4}$

$=\frac74$

$=1\frac34$

Therefore the male is $1\frac34$ feet longer than the mother.

Answer:

Percentage = 14.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Cost of plane ticket = £588

Airport tax = $130

£1 = $1.34

To find the percentage of the total cost spent on airport tax;

First of all, we would convert the ticket cost in pounds (£) to dollars ($).

Cost of plane ticket = £588 to $ = 588 * 1.34 = $787. 92

Total cost = Cost of plane ticket + Airport tax

Total cost = 787. 92 + 130

Total cost = $917.92

$Percentage \; cost = \frac {130}{917.92} * 100$

$Percentage = 0.1416 * 100$

<em>Percentage cost = 14.16 to 1 d.p = 14.2%</em>

<em>Therefore, the percentage of the total cost spent on airport tax by Rimo is 14.2 percent. </em>
