Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of fish Eric bought

= Weight of fish at first - Weight remaining

= 7/8 lb - 1/2 lb = 3/8 lb.

Number of fish Eric bought

= (3/8 lb) / (1/64 lb)

= (24/64 lb) / (1/64 lb)

= 24.

Hence Eric bought 24 fishes.

A triangle has a perimeter of 91 centimeters. Each of the two longer sides of the triangle is three times as long as the shortes
Mkey [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  13 cm, 39 cm, 39 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the short side, then the other two sides are 3x and 3x. The perimeter is the sum of side lengths:

  x +3x +3x = 91

  x = 91/7 = 13

  3x = 3(13) = 39

The length of the short side is 13 cm; the other two sides are 39 cm.

A rectangle or field is 62 m long and 48 m wide Diana estimate the length of the field to be 60 m and the ways to be 45 m what i
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

To make estimates, we usually round the numbers the nearest integer.

Since 1.9 is closest to 2 than it is to 1, the nearest integer of 1.9 is 2.

Similarly, since 4.4 is closest to 4 than it is to 5, the nearest integer of 4.4 is 4.

Now, to estimate the area of the farm, we are going to multiply our two integers:

Estimated Area of the Farm= x

Since 8 is between 4 and 10, we can conclude that the best estimate of the area of the farm is: between 4 and 10
