Okay, I think I understand this. Our first step is to solve how long the string is after he used some of it to tie the package. I have a feeling we have to subtract 7/8 - 1/5. Find a least common multiple (in this case, it's 40) and our new fractions are 35/40 and 8/45. Subtract:

35/40 - 8/40 = 27/40.

I don't think this can be simplified down any further as they do not have any common factors. So with that in mind, let's divide 27/40 with 5/1 (5/1 is basically 5 wholes but in fraction version)

When dividing fractions, you want to use the KCF technique (my old math teacher taught me this). Keep the first fraction the same (in this case, 27/40), change the sign from multiplication to division, and flip 5/1 to get it's reciprocal, 1/5. The equation will look like this:

27/40 * 1/5 = 27/200

So each piece is about 27/200 m in length (or 0.135 m in length).

If this is wrong, please let me know, but this is what I got out of this question. I hope this helped you :)

Find m of ZX in circle P. 70 95 155 205

denis-greek [22]

The answer is C. 155

First find the measure of arc YZ.

The arc of WYZ is equal 180 degrees. So first add 25 to 85. Then subtract that to 180.

25+85=110

180-110=70.

Next add 70 to 85 since you want to find the measure of ZX.

70+85=155

So measure of ZX is equal to 155 degrees
