7/9 as a decimal is 0.777.

7/9 is basically saying 7 divided by 9.
Since 9 doesn't at all go into 7, we have to make a decimal using long division.
So because a decimal isn't a whole number, we put 0.(blank) at the top in place of the regular number.
After, you just continue with the regular long division, but every time the divisor doesn't go into the number from the subtraction, you bring down a zero.

Sorry if this was kind of confusing!
Just watch a video on it if this didn't help.

So first say the fraction to yourself and that's how it's written so it's 7/9 would be seven ninths then work it out

(Pretend you're multiplying 15×20)
1. Start at 0 (obviously)
2. Go 20 numbers to the left and stop (if you're drawing or writing on the number line, make a line vertically to show that's where you stopped for the first 20
3. Do this 14 more times and keep on going to the right

A rectangle has a perimeter of 30 feet and an area of 50 square feet. What are the dimensions of the rectangle?

REY [17]

Perimeter (p) = 2×length (l) + 2×width (w)
p = 2l+2w
area (a) = l×w, so solve for one (I'll use l):
$a = l \times w \\ l = a \div w \\ p = 2l + 2w = 2(l + w)$
since p = 30, and a = 50, substitute the "a÷w" in for l in the perimeter equation:
$p = 2(l + w) = 2((a \div w) + w) \\ = 2((a \div w) + ( {w}^{2} \div w)) \\ p= 2((a + {w}^{2}) \div w$
Now plug in p and a values:
$p= 2((a + {w}^{2}) \div w) \\ 30 = 2((50 + {w}^{2}) \div w) \\ 30 \div 2 = (50 + {w}^{2}) \div w \\ 15w = 50 + {w}^{2}$
$15w = 50 + {w}^{2} \\ {w}^{2} - 15w + 50 = 0 \\ (w - 5)(w - 10) = 0$
therefore width can be either 5 or 10 (but not both), so let's plug in:
l = a÷w = 50÷5 = 10
So if w = 5, then l = 10

D) 5 feet, and 10 feet

How do I find the area???

V125BC [204]

Answer:

option A. 36 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is a trapezium

Area of a trapezium=1/2 *(sum of parallel sides) *height

From the diagram, the parell sides are 6 inches and 12 inches ,and the height is 4 inches.

We substitute these values into the formula.

This implies that, the area
