1. So first of all we have to divide the 3 fractions into decimals to get a decimal to compare. So 5/6 is the same as 5 divided by 6 which is .83 bar and so on...

5/6= .83 bar
1/4= .25
2/3= .66 bar

So 5/6 and 2/3 are closer to one.




2. The two shortest pieces are 2/3 and 1/4 so you se 1/4 + 2/3. Let’s get a common denominator for these fractions. The common denominator is 12. So multiply 1/4 • 3 to get 3/12 and multiply 2/3 by • 4 to get 8/12. Add them together and you get 11/12. So he would need 1/12 more cable or 0.083 bar.


3. Now we have to find a common denominator for all of them. The common denominator is 12 again. Multiply 5/6•2 and then you get 10/12, then add 10/12 +2/12(from 1/4) and then you get leftover with 9/12 or 3/4 more wire.

Find the distance travelled by Rubina if she takes 4 rounds of rectangular park whose length and breadth is 45m and 30m
ANTONII [103]
  • Length (l) = 45 m
  • Breadth (b) = 30 m
  • We know, perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + breadth)
  • Therefore, perimeter of the rectangle
  • = 2(I + b)
  • = 2(45 + 30) m
  • = 2 × 75 m
  • = 150 m
  • So, the distance travelled by Rubina
  • = 4 × 150 m
  • = 600 m

<u>Answer:</u>

<em><u>The </u></em><em><u>distance </u></em><em><u>travelled</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>by </u></em><em><u>Rubina </u></em><em><u>is </u></em><em><u>6</u></em><em><u>0</u></em><em><u>0</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>m.</u></em>

Hope you could get an idea from here.
