Question

Helpppp plssssss I need to get my grade up in math

Answer 1

Answer: 1.25 square feet

This converts to the improper fraction 5/4

===========================================================

Explanation:

The area of the triangle on the left is base*height/2 = 0.5*2/2 = 0.5 square feet. Note that 1/2 = 0.5

The area of the triangle on the right side is base*height/2 = 0.2*3/2 = 0.75 square feet. This converts to the fraction 3/4

Add up the two results: 0.5+0.75 = 1.25 square feet

-----------

If you need the answer as an improper fraction, then,

1.25 = 1 + 0.25

1.25 = 1 + 1/4

1.25 = 4/4 + 1/4

1.25 = (4+1)/4

1.25 = 5/4
