Which simplified fraction is equal to 0.53 with bar?
Oxana [17]

I assume that 0.53 with a bar means the decimal fraction in which 3 is repeating.

24/45, 8/15, and 48/90 all result in the same decimal value. Thus, we are simply looking for the one that is fully simplified.

The correct answer is 8/15.

Hope this helps!

HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!

I realise this is quite late but in case you still wanted the answer, the width is 3m.

If the length is 3m longer than the width, you can write the width as x and the length as x + 3. The perimeter would be both lengths and both widths added together, so you would just write it as:
x + x + x + 3 + x + 3 = 18
4x + 6 = 18
- 6
4x = 12
÷ 4
x = 3

I hope this helps!
