Answer:
7.3*
Step-by-step explanation:
do the inverse:
22/3=7.3*
*=recurring
Alright, so we have the difference = 4500-2800=1700. To find the percent increase, we do 1700/2800=around 0.61 = around 61% percent
-------------------------------------------
Define x:
-------------------------------------------
Let the shorter piece be x.
Shorter piece = x
Longer piece = 6x
-------------------------------------------
Construct equation:
-------------------------------------------
x +6x =35
7x = 35
x =5
-------------------------------------------
Find the length:
-------------------------------------------
Shorter length = x = 5 feet
Larger length = 6x = 6(5) = 30 feet
-------------------------------------------
Answer: The shorter piece is 5 feet.

<span>0.002 1/10 of what
=> 1/10a = 0.002
=> Now, let’s multiply both sides with 10 to find the answer since we’re
looking for the 1/10 of what number.
=> 10 x 1/10 a = 10 x 0.002
=> a = 0.02
Thus, 0.002 is the 1/10 of 0.02 number.
let’s check if we have a correct answer.
To check just do the other way around, Divide our answer by 10.
=> 0.02 / 10
=> 0.002
Therefore, our answer is correct
