Question

The largest orange in a bag has the circumference of 9 5/8 inches. The smallest orange has a circumference

Answer 1

Answer:

1.81 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The circumference of the largest orange in a bag is $9\dfrac{5}{8}\ \text{inches}$ and that of smallest orange is $7\dfrac{13}{16}\ \text{inches}$.

Difference = largest orange - smallest orange

= $9\dfrac{5}{8}-7\dfrac{13}{16}\\\\=\dfrac{77}{8}-\dfrac{125}{16}\\\\=\dfrac{29}{16}\\\\=1.81\ \text{inches}$

So,  difference of the circumferences of the smallest orange and the largest orange is 1.81 inches
