15% and the corresponding 0.15 is by necessity unit-less; it's just a multiplier. If you run up a $1 bill and wish to tip 15%, multiply $1 by 0.15, obtaining $0.15.
Then the total due would be $1 plus $0.15, or $1.15.
Note that $0.15
-------- = 0.15 is unit-less

Answer:
Adjacent = 9.75 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data;
Hypothenus = 12 inches
Opposite = 7 inches
To find the other leg i.e adjacent, we would use Pythagorean' theorem given by the formula;
Hypothenus² = opposite² + adjacent²
Substituting into the formula, we have;
12² = 7² + adjacent²
144 = 49 + adjacent²
Adjacent² = 144 - 49
Adjacent² = 95
Taking the square root of both sides, we have;
Adjacent = 9.75 inches.
Therefore, the other leg is 9.75 inches.
Answer:
a = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
We use pythagoras theorem here.
h = 60
p = 48
b = a
h² = p² + b²
60² = 48² + b²
3600 = 2304 + b²
b² = 3600 - 2304
b² = 1296
b = 36
First, find the lowest common denominator. That is 12. You only have to change 3/4 into 12ths.
3/4 = 9/12
11/12 – 9/12 = 2/12 = 1/6
