Answer:

20 5/8 yd^2

Step-by-step explanation:

width = 3 3/4 yd

length = 5 1/2 yd

First change both measurements to fractions.

3 3/4 = 3 + 3/4 = 12/4 + 3/4 = 15/4

5 1/2 = 5 + 1/2 = 10/2 + 1/2 = 11/2

area = length * width

area = 15/4 yd * 11/2 yd

area = (15 * 11)/(4 * 2) yd^2

area = 165/8 yd^2

165/8 = 20 remainder 5

area = 20 5/8 yd^2

Stolb23 [73]

The answer is B.

The only reason it will be 200 is because the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,and 6 are all an option so the probability of 5 is 1/6 and if you multiply 1/6 by 1,200 you will get 200. Hope this helped!

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides of the triangle

add the parts of the ratio 21 + 8 + 14 = 43

divide the perimeter by 43 to find the value of one part of the ratio

\frac{215}{43} = 5 ft ← 1 part of the ratio, hence

21 parts = 21 × 5 = 105 ft

8 parts = 8 × 5 = 40 ft

14 parts = 14 × 5 = 70 ft

the 3 sides of the triangle are 105 ft, 40 ft and 70 ft
