12.6 repeating is the equivalent of 12.666666666666 and so on but if you rounded, it would be 12.67. So, compare 12.67 and 12.63. 12.67 is larger.

She is wrong because 12.66 is greater than 12.63. The last digit of 12.66 (6) is larger than the last digit of 12.63 (3) Even if 12.6 keeps on going (12.66666.....) 6 will always be bigger than 3. 
Hope that helped :)

The perimeter of a kite is 51 meters. If one side measures 18 meters find the measure of the opposite side.
puteri [66]
Let n and m be the sides of the kite
perimeter = 2(m+n)
51 = 2(18+m)
51/2 = 18 + m
25.5 - 18 = m
m = 7.5m
