17.4736843 or 17 remainder 45
Answer:
5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Tabia spent 15/24 of this week's allowance on gummy bears. She can calculate that by multiplying 3/4 times 5/6. To do that, she multiplies the top numbers of each fraction together (3 times 5 equals 15), and to get the top number of the fraction. Then she multiplies the bottom numbers together (4 times 6 equals 24) to get the bottom number.</span>
Answer:
w= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
I just started by making an educated guess using the values already given. Then I inserted that into the problem to see if it worked.
L= 2w - 5
I used 6 as a random, educated guess for the value of w.
L = 2(6) - 5
L = 12-5
L = 7
Then, multiply L by 2 to account for both side lengths of the rectangle.
7(2)= 14
Subtract that value from the total perimeter to find what the width must equal.
26 - 14 = 12
Divide that answer by 2 since there are two sides for width.
12/2 = 6
I know this was kind of long, but I hope it helps! :)
