Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We want to see how many times bigger 2/5 is than 9/10. Let's call how much bigger 2/5 is b and solve below.

9/10b=2/5   (2/5 is b times larger than 9/10)

We divide both sides by 9/10, so your division would be 2/5÷9/10.

b=4/9

Therefore, the builder worked 4/9 times as long in the morning as he did in the afternoon.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Answer:

2/9 times

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 2/5 divided by 9/10 = 10/45 wich if we simplify it we get 2/9  so that's why 2/9 is the right answer.

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2). A and b are the two legs of the triangle, and c is ALWAYS the hypotenuse. Plug in the values for a and c

a^2+b^2=c^2

5^2+b^2=13^2

25+b^2=169

b^2=144

b=12
