Answer:

2.25 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 2 cm represents 0.5 km on the ground we cross multiply to find how much ground will be represented by 9 cm on the map

2cm=0.5km

9cm=?

(9cm×0.5km)÷2cm

4.5km(cm)÷2cm
2.25 km

NOTE: since the cm are the same they will cancel each other out in the division stage

Plot (25/3) and (42/3) on the number line.

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Refer to the Attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewriting the fractions in decimal and whole number, we have the following:

$\frac{25}{3} = 8\frac{1}{3} = 8.3$

$\frac{42}{3} = 14$

Thus, 42/3 is on 14 and 25/3 is on 8 and then add 1/3 from 8 going to 9.

Therefore, the points must be plotted as follows:

The blue point indicates the 42/3 while the red point indicates the 25/3.
