Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we have a rectangle that measure 21 inches by 16 inches

to find the rectangle(which is the hypotenuse) we will use Pythagorean theorem

c^=a^2+b^2

c^=21^2+16^2=697

c= $\sqrt697}$ =26.40 which rounded to the nearest tenth =26

$\frac{1}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{2}{3}$ is the equation

When dividing fractions, you "flip-flop" and multiply

So what that means is that you flip the second fraction and multiply

So $\frac{2}{3}$ is now $\frac{3}{2}$

Now the equation is $\frac{1}{4}$ × $\frac{3}{2}$ which equals $\frac{3}{8}$

Your answer is $\frac{3}{8}$
