Yes, it is. To find this out, you need to make the denominators the same. They can both multiply into 15, so we change the denominators to 15. Whatever we do to the bottom, we also have to do to the top.
2/3 = 10/15
1/5 = 3/15
We can then see that 10 is more than 3 :)
18. The perimeter is simply √3 + √3 + √3 + √3 or 4√3cm, since the perimeter is just all sides added together. You could add the decimal numbers together using a calculator, which I'm not sure if you're supposed to do in your class.
The area is just width times length, so √3 • √3 = 3cm².
19. The perimeter is 2√5 + 2(9 - √5).
This can also be written as 2√5 + 18 - 2√5, which leaves you with a perimeter of 18ft.
The area would be √5 • (9 - √5), which leaves you with (9√5 - 5)ft².
20. The formula for the perimeter (or circumference) of a circle is π times the diameter of the circle. Using the radius of the circle, 1/π, the diameter is 2/π, so
π • 2/π = 2. The circumference of the circle is 2 inches.
The area of the circle is calculated with the equation πr², so
π(1/π)² = π • 1/(π²) = π/(π²) = π. The area is simply π in².
