Let x-------------> <span>the length of a rectangle y-------------> the </span>width of a rectangle we know that x+y=130-----------> equation 1 and x=1.6y--------------> equation 2
<span>I substitute 2 in 1 (1.6y)+y=130-------------> 2.6y=130------------> y=130/2.6------> y=50 ft x=1.6y--------> x=1.6*50---------> x=80 ft
the answer is </span>the length is 80 ft the width is 50ft
C because you would take 3/4 and multiply it by 3/3 to get the denominator to 12 and you would multiply 1/3 by 4/4 again to get the denominator to 12. You are getting the denominator to 12 because 12 is 3 and 4s Most Common multiple! Now that you have multiplied them you should have 9/12 and 4/12 Then you subtract 4 from 9 to get 5. So the answer is 5/12!
