Answer:
s = 1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
First, divide both sides by 4 to get s by itself.
(2/5) / 4 = 1/10
s = 1/10
A common denominator for 1/4 and 5/6...
1/4 = 3/12
5/6 = 10/12
the common denominator (LCM) would be 12
-4 is less than -5 even though they are both on the same side of the number line. -4 is closer to zero.
You can't tell. The volume doesn't tell you the dimensions. It only tells you
what the product of the three dimensions is, but not what anyone of them is.
There are an infinite number of different possibilities.
Example: Volume = 8 cubic feet
The dimensions of the box could be
Length = 2-ft, Width = 2-ft, Height = 2-ft
or
1 x 1 x 8
or
1 x 2 x 4
or
1 x 3 x 2-2/3
or
1 x 5 x 1.6
or
1 x 6 x 1-1/3
or
1 x 7 x 1-1/7
or
2 x 3 x 1-1/3
or
2 x 5 x 0.8
or
2 x 6 x 2/3
or
2 x 7 x 4/7
or
2 x 8 x 1/2
