It wouldn't let me post, so I screenshotted:
Answer:
C is correct answer ok my
Jenny has the correct solution for the group assignment. It is evident in her response because she uses the correct percentage of 41/100. Unlike Jeremy who uses 41/99. When using fractions or decimals the numerical range always extends to 100.
The decimal number would be 0.41.
Get the distance between two acres.
2.5 - 2.4 = 0.1
Divide the diffence by 2
0.1 / 2 = 0.05 - Halfway between them.
Therefore, 0.05 must be taken from 2.5 acres. it must be added to 2.4 acres to get the exact area of the park.
2.5 - 0.05 = 2.45
2.4 + 0.04 = 2.45 acres
OR
Simply get the average of the two to get the area since it is exactly halfway between the two acres of land.
2.5 + 2.4 = 2.9 / 2 = 2.45 acres
- 16:10
- 24:15
- 40:25
8:5 is just a simplier version of these other ratios
