This is a fraction equal to
2 1 ÷ 4 8
We want a unit rate where
1 is in the denominator,
so we divide top and bottom by 4
2 1 ÷ 4
4 8 ÷ 4
=
0.5 1
1 8

Answer:$259
Step-by-step explanation:
since we need to increase $250 by 6%, it is useful to find one percent because 1% is easy to find
to find one percent of 250, we move the decimal point(we cant see it right now) from after the number to after 2 giving us 2.50. we need to do this to find one percent because 1% is the same as one HUNDREDth, and since 100 has two zeros, we move the decimal place two spaces.now that we know that 1% is $2.50 ( which is the same as $2.5) we can times that by six which gives us 6%(because one times 6 is 6) to multiply 2.5 by 6, we first multiply 6 by 2 which will give us 12 and then multiply it by 0.5 (because 2 + 0.5 =2.5) 0.5 multiplied by 6 is equal to 3 and 3 + 6 = 9. we know know that 6% of $250 is $9. we now just add 9 to 250 leaving us with $259
75 inches / 33 inches : 1,250 / shadow
75 * shadow = 33 * 1,250
shadow = 41,250 / 75
shadow = 550 feet
