1/2 is the answer bc it is the best choice between them so
In order to find the answer to this, you must first turn 4 into a fraction (4/1)
12/25 divided by 4/1 is the same as 12/25 multiplied by 1/4, because when dividing fractions, you must use the reciprocal of the divisor and multiply.
12/25 x 1/4 = 12/100 = 6/50 = 3/25
Your answer should be 3/25<span />
12 × 12 would equal to 144
Hope this helped! :D
Answer:
distance across the pond: 13 yd
distance walked by Garret: 12 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
Data:
- distance across the pond: x yd
- distance walked by Sandy: 5 yd
- distance walked by Garret: x-1 yd
A right triangle is formed where the distance across the pond is the hypotenuse. From Pythagorean theorem:
x² = 5² + (x-1)²
x² = 25 + x² - 2x + 1
0 = 26 - 2x
x = 13
