How many fifths are the in 60/100

tankabanditka [31]

In order to calculate that, we need to divide it by 1/5 as follows:
60/100 / 1/5

We can re-write it as: 60/100 * 5 = 6/10 * 5 = 30/10 = 3

So, there are "3" 1/5ths in 60/100

Hope this helps!

The coordinates of the vertices of a rectangle are (−3, 4) , (7, 2) , (6, −3) , and (−4, −1) . What is the perimeter of the rect

ki77a [65]

Answrer

Find out the what is the perimeter of the rectangle .

To prove

Now as shown in the figure.

Name the coordinates as.

A(−3, 4) ,B (7, 2) , C(6, −3) , and D(−4, −1) .

In rectangle opposite sides are equal.

Thus

AB = DC

AD = BC

Formula

$Disatnce\ formula = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} +(y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}}$

Now the points A(−3, 4) and B(7, 2)

$AB = \sqrt{(7- (-3))^{2} +(2- 4)^{2}}$

$AB = \sqrt{(10)^{2} +(-2)^{2}}$

$AB = \sqrt{100+4}$

$AB = \sqrt{104}$

$AB = 2\sqrt{26}\units$

Thus

$CD= 2\sqrt{26}\units$

Now the points

A (−3, 4) , D (−4, −1)

$AD = \sqrt{(-4 - (-3))^{2} +(-1- 4)^{2}}$

$AD = \sqrt{(-1)^{2} +(-5)^{2}}$

$AD = \sqrt{1 + 25}$

$AD = \sqrt{26}\units$

Thus

$BC = \sqrt{26}\units$

Formula

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth)

Here

$Length = 2\sqrt{26}\ units$

$Breadth = \sqrt{26}\ units$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 2(2\sqrt{26} +\sqrt{26})$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 2(3\sqrt{26})$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 6\sqrt{26}$

$\sqrt{26} = 5.1 (Approx)$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 6\times 5.1$

Perimeter of a rectangle = 30.6 units.

Therefore the perimeter of a rectangle is 30.6 units.

The following is the recipe to make one dozen muffins: 1 cups flour; 2 cups sugar; 2 tsps. Baking powder; 1 egg; 1 cup Crisco; 1

ivolga24 [154]

1.5 cups of flower, 3 cups sugar, 3 tbsp. baking powder, 1.5 eggs, 1.5 cups of Crisco, 1.5 cups of skim milk (hopefully not skin milk), and 1.5 cups of blueberries. Because 18 is 12 x 1.5 you just multiply all the given numbers by 1.5.
