Answer:

24649-17424=7225 UNITS

Step-by-step explanation:

This step implies that Lara was using the Pythagoras theorem to find the missing length of the right triangle.

a²+b²=c², taking a and b to be the  two lengths adjoined by the right angle and c the hypotenuse.

Laura's step represents the step above.

157²=24649

132²=17424

157²-132²=c²

24649-17424=7225

Which list of numbers is in order from least to greatest?<br> 3/6 3/10 3/7
lapo4ka [179]
The list of numbers from least to greatest is 

3/10 , 3/7, 3/6

This is because the numerator stays the same across all three of these fractions.  However, the denominator is changing, and this proves to be a large difference.  

Think about it this way: If you cut a pie into ten pieces, then those slices are going to be smaller than if you cut the pie into seven or six pieces.
