Answer:
The sides are
6
inches,
8
inches and
10
inches
Explanation:
I'd suggest that the question should read 'The perimeter of a triangle is 24 inches. The longest side is 4 inches longer than the shortest side, and the shortest side is three-fourths the length of the middle side. How do you find the length of each side of the triangle?'
In this case the question can be answered. If
x
is the length of the middle side, then the shortest side is 3/4x and the longest side is 3/4x+4
x+3/4x+3/4x+4=24
10/4x=20
x=8
Then the shortest side is 6and the longest side is 10

Answer:
<u>The correct answer is A. 1/8</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Let's solve (1/3 * 9/16) / 1 1/2 = x</u>
(1/3 * 9/16) / 1 1/2 = x
9/48 / 1 1/2 = 9/48 * 2/3 = 18/144
18/144, we can simplify dividing by 18 at the numerator and the denominator, this way:
x = 18 ÷ 18/ 144 * 18 = 1/8
<u>The correct answer is A. 1/8</u>
