To find the area of a rectangle, multiple the width by the length.
(And simply the fractions for a simpler equation)
For piece A:
The length 1 and 3/5 can be turned into an improper fraction by multiplying 1 by the denominator (5) and adding it to the numerator (3). 1 and 3/5 = 8/5
(3/4) • (8/5) = area
Multiple the numerators with each other and the denominators with each other (3 times 8 = 24) (4 times 5 = 20)
The area of piece A is 24/20
If you do the same for piece B:
(2/5) • (21/8) = area
The answer is 42/40
The answer is 29. Hope this helps.
Answer:
Answer is Option 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangles equal to 180 degrees in total. So it is 55+54+x+74=180
The simplified version that I just wrote is Option 2
The total is 94 units.
A square has four equal sides so...
(5x-1)+(4x+3)+(5x-1)+(4x+3)=94
Combine like terms
19x+4=94
Subtract 4 from both sides
94-4=90
18x=90
Divide by 18 on both sides
90/18=5
X=5
Plug 5 in for x on the length of PQ
4(5)+3
20+3=23
Length of PQ=23 units
