\frac{2}{3} =0.666666... = 0.67

Chef A Length >=< Chef B Length
503 \frac{2}{3} >=< 503.66
503.67 = 503.67

If you convert \frac{2}{3} into a decimal and round it, it shows that both the chefs have the the same length of pasta.

Lenght spaghetti chef a:
503 2/3ft= (503*3+2)/3=1511/3 =503,(6)
lenght spaghetti chef b:
503,66

Because 503,(6)>503,66
=> lenght spaghetti chef a > lenght spaghetti chef b
So, the winner must be chef a, but, if 503.66 rounds to 503.7, also 503(6) rounds to 503.7, and in this case
lenght spaghetti chef a= lenght spaghetti chef b
So, <span>chef a should protest the judges' decision, because his </span>lenght spaghetti is ≥ lenght spaghetti chef b.

Answer:

B)10

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is a right angle(indicated by the red box) the total measure should be 90°.

And based on that we say 5X +40=90

Subtract 40 from both sides to get 5x=50

And then divide both sides by 5 to get x=10

what number must be added to 3 and 8 so that the ratio of the first number to the second number is equal to 3 :4​
Grace [21]
The answer is 12.
Steps
If that number is x
(3+x)/(8+x)=3/4
"Cross multply"
4(3+x)=3(8+x)
12+4x=24+3x
x=12
To check: add 12 to 3 and 8. 3+12=15 and 8+12=20. 15/20=3/4
