To multiply fracti0ons, we need to convert them to improper fractions:
-2 1/4 = -9/4
-4 1/2 = -9/2
Now, lets multiply:
-9/4 * -9/2 = 81/8
Hope this helps!
Take note that the answer is positive because when multiplying, two negatives make a positive.
Answer:The area of the base will be (1)(3) m
The area of the right and left lateral faces will be (1)(2) = 2m
The area of the front and back lateral faces will be (2)(3) = 6m
The lateral area of the prism will be 16 m

Answer:
17/6 or 2 5/6 gallons of paint
Step-by-step explanation:
First, do 17/6= 2 5/6.
That's really all, but I can't help you with the number line because of no attachment, but just put it on the part where it says 17/6 or 2 5/6.
Hope this helped!
<h3>Answer: Net Increase of 26%</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
If it increases by 5%, then we use the multiplier 1.05
Think of it like saying 100% + 5% = 1 + 0.05 = 1.05
Similarly, an increase of 20% means we involve 1.20
Combine those multipliers to get: 1.05*1.20 = 1.26
This is a net increase of 26%
Interestingly, we get fairly close to 25% which is what many students might go for (since 5 + 20 = 25). This is a beginner's trap.
----------------
An example:
Let's say the temperature is 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit)
An increase of 5% means it moves to 1.05*20 = 21 degrees C
A 20% increase means we go to 1.20*21 = 25.2 degrees C
The shortcut would be to do a 26% increase to get 1.26*20 = 25.2 to help confirm we have the correct combined increase.
Here you go!! Hope it helps !!
