The answer is 4 isn’t it?
Answer: Sara multiplied by 3 when she should have multiplied by 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
21 : 7*8
7*8 = 56
21 : 56
The simplest form of this ratio is 3 : 8
To solve, we need to subtract from these two fractions. In order to do this, we will change one of them to have the same denominator as the other.
We have 5/14 and 1/7
Let us change 1/7
Multiply 2/2 (a form of 1 so it does not change the value of the fraction)
2/2 • 1/7 = 2/14
Now subtract from 5/14
5/14 - 2/14 = 3/14
ANSWER: Vicky ran 3/14 of a mile more
![\text{The length of the diagonal is }11.2\text{ mm}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BThe%20length%20of%20the%20diagonal%20is%20%7D11.2%5Ctext%7B%20mm%7D)
Here, we want to find the diagonal of the given solid
To do this, we need the appropriate triangle
Firstly, we need the diagonal of the base
To get this, we use Pythagoras' theorem for the base
The other measures are 6 mm and 8 mm
According ro Pythagoras' ; the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides
Let us have the diagonal as l
Mathematically;
![\begin{gathered} l^2=6^2+8^2 \\ l^2\text{ = 36 + 64} \\ l^2\text{ =100} \\ l\text{ = }\sqrt[]{100} \\ l\text{ = 10 mm} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20l%5E2%3D6%5E2%2B8%5E2%20%5C%5C%20l%5E2%5Ctext%7B%20%3D%2036%20%2B%2064%7D%20%5C%5C%20l%5E2%5Ctext%7B%20%3D100%7D%20%5C%5C%20l%5Ctext%7B%20%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B100%7D%20%5C%5C%20l%5Ctext%7B%20%3D%2010%20mm%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
Now, to get the diagonal, we use the triangle with height 5 mm and the base being the hypotenuse we calculated above
Thus, we calculate this using the Pytthagoras' theorem as follows;
