Hey user!!

your answer is here...

given the ratio between the Length and breadth (width) of the rectangle is 5 : 3

let the Length and breadth of the rectangle be 5x and 3x approximately.

area of the rectangle = 240in²

therefore l × b = 240in²

==> 5x × 3x = 240in²

==> 15x² = 240in²

==> x² = 240/15

==> x² = 16

==> x = √16

==> x = 4in

hence, length of the rectangle = 5x = 5 × 4 = 20in

breadth of the rectangle = 3x = 3 × 4 = 12in

cheers!!

Please answer all three questions Pleaseeeeee tysmm <3
oee [108]

Answer: 2 3/4 > 2.68 is correct (only)

Step-by-step explanation: 2 3/4 = 2.75, and 2.75 is greater than 2.68

The rest are incorrect. 7.895 * 10^2 (100) = 789.5, and 5.43 * 10^3 (1000) = 5430. So 789.5 > 5430 is false.

Sqrt(63) = 7.93, and 7.93 > 8.11 is false.

Absolute values ( | | ) mean that no matter if it is negative or positive, it will become positive (unless the negative sign is outside the absolute value). 1.5 > 3.2 is false, and even without the absolute value, -1.5 is still less than 3.2
