Okay, I think I understand this. Our first step is to solve how long the string is after he used some of it to tie the package. I have a feeling we have to subtract 7/8 - 1/5. Find a least common multiple (in this case, it's 40) and our new fractions are 35/40 and 8/45. Subtract:
35/40 - 8/40 = 27/40.
I don't think this can be simplified down any further as they do not have any common factors. So with that in mind, let's divide 27/40 with 5/1 (5/1 is basically 5 wholes but in fraction version)
When dividing fractions, you want to use the KCF technique (my old math teacher taught me this). Keep the first fraction the same (in this case, 27/40), change the sign from multiplication to division, and flip 5/1 to get it's reciprocal, 1/5. The equation will look like this:
27/40 * 1/5 = 27/200
So each piece is about 27/200 m in length (or 0.135 m in length).
If this is wrong, please let me know, but this is what I got out of this question. I hope this helped you :)
Answer:
you would find the slope from the midpoint to the endpoint and apply that to the other side, don't know exactly what the coordinates are.

Answer:
4.4
4.40
Step-by-step explanation:
These two decimals above are equivalent to 4.400 because no matter the amount of zeroes, the numbers are the same. For example, 4.400 is also equivalent to 4.400000000000000000000000000000000. As long as the "4's" maintain the same place (ones place and tens place), the decimals will be congruent to one another.
