Answer: the length of the base is 15 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

formula : Area of parrallelogram = Length of base x height

Given: Area of parallelogram = 300 square kilometers

height = 20 kilometers

Substituting values in the formula , we get

300 = Length of base x 20

Length of base = $\frac{300}{20}$

= 15 kilometers

Hence, the length of the base is 15 kilometers.

Which fraction is bigger 2/6 or 2/4

Rina8888 [55]

2/4 is the larger fraction. Think of a candy bar that is cut into 4 equal pieces. Now think of the same sized candy bar cut into 6 pieces. The candy bar that has been cut into sixths has more pieces but they are smaller pieces that the candy bar cut into fourths. **When comparing fractions, if the numerators are the same (like they are in this problem) look at the denominators. Whichever fraction has the greater number is actually going to be the smaller fraction (more pieces, but smaller pieces). If the denominators are the same, then the fraction that has the greater number in the numerator will be the larger fraction (more same-sized pieces than the other fraction) Hope that helps!

Write a formula for the area A of a parallelogram.

OleMash [197]

To find the area of a parallelogram, multiply the base by the height. the formula is: A= Base times height where B is the base, and H is the height, and * means multiply. the base and height of a parallelogram must be perpendicular

Classify the following is rational or irrational(a) √45

marshall27 [118]

The numbers that can be expressed in the form of a fraction are called rational numbers. While that numbers that cannot be expressed in the form of a fraction are called irrational numbers.

$\sqrt{45} =\sqrt{3 \times 3 \times 5}$

$\sqrt{45} =3\sqrt{5}$

$3\sqrt{5}$ is an irrational number, it cannot be expressed in the form of a fraction.
