Answer:
9, 32 and 36
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of all the sides. Since you know the perimeter and the expressions for each of the sides, you can set up an equation to solve for the variable and find the values of the other sides:
one side: '4 times the shortest side' = 4s
shortest side: 's'
third side: '23 more than the shortest side' = s + 23
perimeter = 77
Equation: 4s + s + (s + 23) = 77
Combine like terms: 6s + 23 = 77
Subtract 23 from both sides: 6s + 23 - 23 = 77 - 23 or 6s = 54
Divide by 6: 6s/6 = 54/6 or s = 9
one side: 4s = 4(9) = 36
shortest side: s = 9
third side: s + 23 = 9 + 23 = 32
Volume = (l*h*w)\3
v= (20*15*15)\3
v=4500\3
v=1500
Answer:
they would get somewhere from 80% to 85%
Step-by-step explanation:
A rational number is one which can be represented using fractions. The opposite of division is multiplication and vice versa. Knowing this information, you can easily go about turning a division of two fractions into the multiplication of two fractions.
Ex.
(1/2) / (3/4) = ?
multiply the denominator of your fraction by the reciprocal of the denominator.
(1/2)*(4/3) / (3/4)*(4/3)
(4/6) / 1 = 4/6
So when dividing rational numbers, you can multiply the denominator by its reciprocal. This would be an example of converting a division problem into a multiplication one
