Answer:
x= -5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
solution given:
volume of lower one[V1]=l×b×h=1.5×0.5×0.5=0.378m³
volume of upper one [V2]=l×b×h=1×0.5×(0.75-0.5)=
0.125m³
total volume=V1+V2=0.378m³+0.125m³=0.503m³
0.503m³ is your answer
The fraction of text -3/8 of the cover page
From this fraction of text only 2/5 of the text is about endangered species
We are asked to find out what the fraction of the cover page is that covers endangered species
In this 2/5 of 3/8 is about endangered species
Therefore to obtain the answer we need to multiply the two fractions
2/5 * 3/8
Fraction of the cover page about endangered species is therefore = 2/5 * 3/8
= 0.15
Answer:
- -3/13 ≈ -1/4
- -6/11 ≈ -1/2
- -7/9 ≈ -3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll drop all the minus signs, since they don't contribute anything but distraction.
When numerators or denominators are relatively large, changing their value by 1 unit will have a relatively small effect on the value of the fraction. For example, ...
3/13 ≈ 3/12 = 1/4
If we compare the decimal values of these fractions, we see that ...
3/13 ≈ 0.230769... (6-digit repeating decimal)
The closest of the offered "reasonable estimate" fractions is 1/4 = 0.25.
__
Likewise, 6/11 ≈ 6/12 = 1/2. In decimal, these fractions are ...
6/11 = 0.54... (2-digit repeat)
1/2 = 0.5
__
We can also increase or decrease both numerator and denominator by the same amount to get a fraction with nearly the same value. This works best when the numbers are larger.
7/9 ≈ 6/8 = 3/4 . . . . . . both numerator and denominator decreased by 1
In decimal, these are ...
7/9 = 0.7... (1-digit repeat)
3/4 = 0.75
