9 3/4 is heavier than 9 5/8. If you multiply 3/4 by 2/2, you will get 6/8, which is greater than 5/8.
Answer:
4 3/8 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that: the scale on a map is 1 inch =2 1/2 miles.the distance between two streets on the map is 1 3/4 inches
If 1 inches = 2 1/2 miles
1 3/4 inches =
Cross Multiply
1 3/4 × 2 1/2/1
= 7/4 × 5/2
= 35/8
= 4 3/8 miles
The actual distance between these streets is 4 3/8 miles
This is a 45-45-90 triangle or a right triangle created by the sides.
Because of this being a right triangle and 45 degrees being given already for one angle you would add 90 and 45 which will give you 135. You would subtract 135 from 180 because all the angles of a triangle add up to 180°. 180-135=45. X=45°
