what is 16/10 as a mixed number in simplest form. I don't get it?

16/10 as a mixed number is 1 6/10.

I got this answer by finding out how many times 10 goes into 16, evenly. I got 1, and put that as a whole number. 6 was leftover, so I put that for the numerator. Then, I kept the denominator same, which was 10.

1 6/10 simplified is 1 3/5.

I got this answer by finding out what number goes both into 10 and 6, evenly. The GCF, or Greatest Common Factor, was 2. I divided 6 by 2 and 10 by 2. I then got 3 and 5.
3 was the numerator, and 5 is the denominator.

Again, 16/10 in simplest form is 1 3/5.

Answer: Length of shorter tree = 7.2 feet .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Height of two trees as 50 feet and 20 feet.

At same time the angle made by sun rays would be same for both trees.

Both trees are vertical to the ground making right angle so triangles made by both triangles must be similar.

Corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional.

So $\dfrac{\text{length of the shadow of the shorter tree}}{\text{height of shorter tree}}=\dfrac{\text{length of the shadow of the bigger tree}}{\text{height of bigger tree}}\\\\=\dfrac{\text{length of the shadow of the shorter tree}}{20}=\dfrac{18}{50}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{length of the shadow of the shorter tree}=\dfrac{18}{50}\times20\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{length of the shadow of the shorter tree} = 7.2$
