There are 100 centimeters in 1 meter.1 and 1/4 meters can also be written as 1.25, since 1/4 = 0.25.To find the answer, convert 1.25 meters to centimeters.
1 meter = 100 centimeters1.25 meters = x centimeters1.25 is 125% of 1. In other words, there is a 25% increase.
Now apply this increase to the centimeters side.125% = 1.251.25 • 100 = 125
So 1.25 meters (1 and 1/4 meters) equals 125 centimeters.
The string is 325 centimeters.In order for the string to be 125 centimeters, you need to cut some off.To find how much you need to cut off, subtract 125 from 325.325 - 125 = 200
Answer: In order for your string to be 1 and 1/4 meters, you must cut 200 centimeters off the original 325 centimeter long string.

Answer:

1/1560

Step-by-step explanation:

The chance of you winning is 1/40, since there are 40 students and you are one of those students. Since, you cannot win again once you win once, you are eliminated. This leaves us with 39 people left. The chances of your friend being chosen out of the 39 people left is 1/39. Now you must multiply 1/40 and 1/39. After multiplying, you get 1/1560.

Advocard [28]

The answer would be D.

Randall should choose the rebate offer because the shoes will be $2.40 less than if he chooses the sale price.

88 - 20% = 70.4

88 - 20 = 68

70.4 - 68 = 2.4 (2.40)

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first write an equation where the unknown number is represented with variable x. <em>The sum of a fifth of x and two is five:</em>

\frac{1}{5} x+2=5

Great! Let's solve for x by isolating the variable.

\frac{1}{5}x=3\\x=15

<u>Therefore, the unknown number is 15.</u>

Find the volume and surface area of this prism.
mina [271]

Answer:

V = 408 cm cubed

SA = 558 cm squared

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a prism, multiply the area of the base by the height. This is 1/2 times width times height times length.

V =1/2 l*w*h =1/2* 6*8*17 = 408

To find the surface area of a prism, find the area of the triangular base and the area of each rectangular side.

Area of the base is A = 1/2 * b*h = 1/2 * 6 * 8 = 24. Since there are 2 bases, the area is 48.

Area of the rectangular side is A = b*h = 17*10 = 170. Since there are three, the area is 3*170 = 510.

The surface area of the prism is 48 + 510 = 558.
