<em><u>The equation to find the length r of the red ribbon is:</u></em>

r = \frac{3b}{2}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "b" be the length of blue ribbon

Let "r" be the length of red ribbon

To find: equation for length r of the red ribbon.

The length of the blue ribbon is two - thirds the length of the red ribbon

Which means,

\text{Length of blue ribbon } = \frac{2}{3} \times \text{ length of the red ribbon }

Therefore,

b = \frac{2}{3} \times r\\\\3b = 2r\\\\r = \frac{3b}{2}

Thus the equation to find the length r of the red ribbon is found

an equation to find the length r of the red ribbon is r = \frac{3b}{2} , where b is the length of blue ribbon.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have , The length of the blue ribbon is two-thirds the length of the red ribbon. Let length of red ribbon is r cm , than length of blue ribbon is  two-thirds the length of the red ribbon i.e. \frac{2r}{3} .

Length of red ribbon = r cm

Length of blue ribbon = b = \frac{2r}{3} cm

⇒ Length of blue ribbon = b = \frac{2r}{3} cm

⇒ b = \frac{2r}{3}

⇒ r = \frac{3b}{2}

Therefore, an equation to find the length r of the red ribbon is r = \frac{3b}{2} , where b is the length of blue ribbon.

Answer:

-4.65< -4 and 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, this we can convert the fraction -4 and 2/5 into a decimal so that the values can be more easily compared. When we do this, we get the result that -4 and 2/5 equals -4.4. Now we can clearly see which value is greater because they are written in the same form:

-4.65<-4.4

-4.65<-4 2/5
