1/2 = 0.5
12 & 1/2 = 12 + 1/2 = 12 + 0.5 = 12.5
4 & 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 = 4 + 0.5 = 4.5
Refer to the diagram below. Note how I divided the figure into two rectangles.
The larger red rectangle is 12.5 feet by 10 feet. It has area 12.5*10 = 125 square feet.
The smaller blue rectangle has dimensions 4.5 feet by 5 feet (the 5 is from 15-10 = 5), so it has area 4.5*5 = 22.5 square feet
Now add up those individual areas to get the total area
125+22.5 = 147.5
Then convert that to a mixed number
147.5 = 147 + 0.5 = 147 + 1/2 = 147 & 1/2
<h3>The correct area is 147 & 1/2 feet</h3>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Its given:

Answer:
We want to simplify:
(3 + 1/4)*(3/5)
The first step is to write the first term as a single rational number.
We know that:
3*1 = 3
and 4/4 = 1
then:
3*1 = 3*(4/4) = (3*4)/4 = 12/4
We do this because we want to have the same denominator in both numbers, so we can directly add them.
Then we get:
(3 + 1/4)*(3/5) = (12/4 + 1/4)*(3/5) = (13/4)*(3/5)
And remember that in the multiplication of rational numbers the numerator are multiplied together and the same for the denominators, then we get:
(13/4)*(3/5) = (13*3)/(4*5)
If we solve the multiplications we get:
(13*3)/(4*5) = (39/20)
Now, we can notice that in the numerator we have two prime numbers, 13 and 3.
And in the denominators, we have a 4 (which is equal to 2*2) and a 5.
So the prime numbers in the numerator and the denominator are all different, this means that we can not simplify it furthermore.
Then we have:
(3 + 1/4)*(3/5) = (39/20)
Area= Length* Width
⇒ 12 ft^2= 5 ft* Width
⇒ Width= 12 ft^2/ 5 ft
⇒ Width= 2.4 ft
The width is 2.4 ft~
Answer:
3(p+4m) + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor out a 3 for the first two terms, 3(p+4m) and add 8 like usual
