8 2

Answer:

322.63%

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of square pyramid = 1/3a²h

a = base side length ; h = height

Volume of pyramid A :

a = 18 ; h = 9

V = 1/3*18²*9

V = 18² * 3

V = 972 in³

Volume of pyramid B = 3136 in³

Volume of pyramid B / Volume of pyramid A

(3136 / 972) * 100% = 322.63%

What is 12 divided by 6/7
Naddik [55]
What is the easiest way to divide whole numbers to fractions?
Just follow these two easy steps:
1. Multiply the whole number  to the denominator of the fraction. In other words, the bottom number of the fraction will be multiplied to the whole number, like this:

12 ÷ 6/7 = n
 <u>   6    </u>
7 x 12
You will have 6/ 84.
2. Simplify.
6  = 1, 2, 3, 6
84= 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 42, 84

the GCF is 6.  divide both numbers by 6, so the answer will be 1/14.

You can also get the reciprocal and proceed to multiplication , like this: (12/1 is the fractional form or the whole number 12.)
 1/12 x 6/7=n
that makes 6/84 or 1/14.

what algebraic expression must be added to the sum of 3x squared + 4x + 8 and 2x squared -6x + 3 to give 9x squared -2x - 5 as t
gregori [183]
<span>3x^2 + 4x + 8 + 2x^2 - 6x + 3 to give result as 9x^2 -2x - 5


</span>3x^2 + 4x + 8 + 2x^2 - 6x + 3 
= 5x^2 - 2x + 11

so

9x^2 -2x - 5 - (5x^2 - 2x + 11)
= 9x^2 -2x - 5 -  5x^2 +  2x - 11
= 4x^2 -16

answer

expression (4x^2 -16) must be added to the sum of (3x^2 + 4x + 8) and (2x^2 - 6x + 3) to give the result as (9x^2 - 2x - 5)
