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

When can you simplify ratios​
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

you can simplify rations just like you simplify fractions. Whenever you are able to evenly divide both parts of the ratio with out changing the equation's answer, you are able to.

for example

if it were 3:6, you can simplify this by dividing these both by 3, leaving you with 1:2.
