Answer:

~28

Step-by-step explanation:

5 feet 3 inches is 5.25 feet.

We divide 7/5.25 which equals 1.3333333333333 (repeating)

That means we multiply 21 by 1.333333333333 which would round up to 28 feet. (the exact answer is 27.99999999999999999)

Divide 54 into two parts so that four times the greater equals five time the less​
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Let the both the parts be 'x' and 'y'
x>y
We know that 4x = 5y
so x = 5y/4
x + y = 54
Replacing x we get
(5y/4) + y = 54
(5y +4y)/4 = 54
9y = 216
y = 24
Replacing y in ' x+y = 54'
we get x = 30

Hence the larger part is 30 whereas the smaller part is 24
