complete question:

If the height and base of the parallelogram shown are each decreased by 2 cm, what is the area of the new parallelogram?

A parallelogram with a base of 10 centimetres and a height of 8 centimetres.

Answer:

area = 48 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is quadrilateral with 4 sides formed by 2 pair of parallel lines. The area of a parallelogram is represented as follows :

area of parallelogram =  B × H

where

B = breadth

H = height

According to the question the height and the base each reduced by 2 cm.

The new base = 10 - 2 = 8 cm

The new height = 8 - 2 = 6 cm

area = B × H

area = 8 × 6

area = 48 cm²

Joe has eaten 2/5 of a pizza. James has eaten 1/7. How many times more pizza has Joe eaten than James?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
First let's make the denominators of the fractions equal.
To do this, we have to find a number which both 5 and 7 divide into.
The smallest number that does this is 35.

2  --> Multiply the numerator by 7
--   
5  --> Multiply the denominator by 7 to get 35

= 14/35

1 --> Multiply the numerator by 5
--
7 --> Multiply the denominator by 5 to get 35

= 5/35

Joe has eaten 14/35 and James has eaten 5/35.
14 / 5 = 2.8

<u>Joe has eaten 2.8 (or 2 4/5) times more pizza than James.</u>
