4 0

Answer:

28.8 or 28 8/10

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage is out of 100. We have to convert 8 3/4 into a percentage. 8 3/4 can also be written as an improper fraction 35/4. Now we have to make the denominator 100. We already knoe that 4 multiplied by 25 equals 100, then we do the same to the numerator. 35 multiplied by 25 gets us to 125. Now we got 125/100. Now since we converted the fracrion into a percentage, now what we do is divide 36 by 125% and that will get you to 28.8 or 28 8/10.

To double check your answer, you can multiply 28.8 by 125% and you will get 36.

Triss [41]

Answer:

1 1/8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the sails are similar, corresponding sides are in the same ratio, so we have the equation

:24/3 = 9/b where b = base of the souvenir boat.

Cross multiply:

24b = 9*3

b = 27/24

= 1 1/8 inches.
