Is 5/8 greater than or less than 5/16

Mathematics
2 answers:
Tomtit [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: 5/8 > 5/16

Why 5/8 is bigger? The reason why it's bigger it has more space.

Example: Cutting a pizza into 8 for 5 people.

Non-Example: Cutting a pizza into 16 for 5 people.

The people at the party will get the biggest slice which is in the 8

Serving 16 then they will get the smallest.

Because 5/8 is in less portions than 5/16, 5/8 is greater than 5/16.

A 14 inch pizza (diameter is 14) was cut in to 8 pieces. What is the angle measure of each slice? *
Luda [366]

Answer:

The angle for each slice is 45 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the angle of each slice, we first need to calculate the total area of the pizza, because we will use that to find the area of each slice and as a result it's angle. To calculate the area of the pizza we must use:

pizza area = pi*r²

r = d / 2 = 14 /2 = 7 inches

pizza area = pi*(7)² = 153.86 square inches

Since the pizza was divided in 8 pieces, the area of each piece is given by the area of the pizza divided by the number of slices. We have:

slice area = pizza area  / 8 = 153.86 / 8 =19.2325 square inches

Each slice is a circle sector, therefore it's area is given by:

slice area = (angle*pi*r²)/360

Therefore we can solve for angle:

19.2325 = (angle*pi*7²)/360

angle*pi*49 = 6923.7

angle = 6923.7 / pi*49 = 45 degrees

The angle for each slice is 45 degrees.

PLEASE HELP The areas of two similar triangles are 50 dm2, and 32 dm2. The sum of their perimeters is 117 dm. What is the perime
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

65 dm and 52 dm

Step-by-step explanation:

If the scale factor of the sides is k, then the scale factor of the areas is k^2.

The scale factor of the areas is (32 dm^2)/(50 dm^2) = 0.64 = k^2

The scale factor of the sides is k = \sqrt(0.64) = 0.8

The perimeters are in a ratio of 1:0.8

x + 0.8x = 117

1.8x = 117

x = 65

0.8x = 0.8(65) = 52

The perimeters are 65 dm and 52 dm.

.........simplify 3^2*3^5
Liula [17]
Using order of operations, we can see we should first solve for the exponents, and then multiply the exponent values by each other.


3²×3^{5}
9×243
2187

Another way to solve this is to add the exponents together and simply do 3^{7}. We can only do that in this case, however, because the values are being multiplied by each other.

Either way we solve, we will get 2187 as our final answer.
