Step-by-step explanation:
Remember, math is a language
when you see per think fractions
15.2 miles per hour = 15.2 miles / 1 hour
since this is a fraction, Units can cancel just like numbers
To cancel miles and be left with hours rearrange the fraction
1 hour / 15.2 miles
then multiply by 72 miles
the miles cancel and youre left with hours!
so youd write and solve 72 / 15.2
Answer:
If Length is decreased by 10% then it would become a square.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Area of Rectangular field = 1440 sq. m
Perimeter = 152 m.
We need to find which one needs to be decreased by what percentage to make it a square.
Solution:
Let length be denoted by 'l'.
Also Let width be denoted by 'w'.
Now we know that Area of rectangular field is given by Length times width.
framing in equation form we get;
Also we know that Perimeter of rectangular field is given by 2 times sum of Length and width.
framing in equation form we get;
Now Substituting equation 2 in equation 1 we get;
Now we will find the root by factorizing the same we get;
Now solving for each to find the value of 'w' we get;
So We can say that;
Width = 36 m and Length = 40 m
Now we need to find out of length or breadth which one is to be decreased by what percentage to make it a square.
We know that square has all sides same.
So from the data we found we can say that if length is decreased by 4 then length and breadth(width) both will be equal.
So to find percentage decreased we will divide length to be decreased by total length and then multiply by 100.
framing in equation form we get;
percentage decreased =
Hence If Length is decreased by 10% then it would become a square.
