It might be d because the side are all the exact same size!
Answer:
D 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Replace values in the equation with values given. Calculate.
Three consecutive odd integers are n, n+2 and n+4
n + n+2 + n+4 = -87
3n + 6 = -87
3n = -87 - 6
3n = -93
n = -93/3
n = -31
n+2 = -31 + 2 = -29
n+4 = -31 + 4 = -27
The numbers are -31, -29 and -27
The first step to find how many 1/4 inch segments are in 1 and 1/2 inches is to convert 1 and 1/2 into an improper fraction.
To do this, convert 1 into a fraction with the same denominator as 1/2, which is 2.
1 = 1/1
1/1 = 2/2
Now add 2/2, which is the same as 1, to 1/2.
2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2
So 1 and 1/2 = 3/2
Now multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2 so you can see how many times 1/4 goes into the fraction equivalent to 1 and 1/2.
3/2 = 6/4
1/4 goes into 6/4 6 times, since the numerator of 1 goes into the numerator of 6 6 times.
So the answer is that 6 1/4 inch segments are in 1 and 1/2 inches.
