Answer:

8 pictures

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Window = 5\frac{3}{4}ft

Wall = 9.75ft

Pictures = 6\ inches

Required

Determine the number of pictures

First, we need to calculate the length of the available space

This is calculated by subtracting the width of the window from the width of the wall.

Space = Wall - Window

Space = 9.75 - 5\frac{3}{4}

Convert fraction to decimal

Space = 9.75 - 5.75

Space = 4ft

Since, the pictures are placed side by side.

This means that, there's no empty space between them.

Number of pictures is:

Number = \frac{Space}{Pictures}

Number = \frac{4\ ft}{6\ in}

Convert feet to inches

Number = \frac{4 * 12\ in}{6\ in}

Number = \frac{48\ in}{6\ in}

Number = \frac{48}{6}

Number = 8

<em>Hence, 8 pictures can fit the wall</em>

Ratling [72]

Answer:

8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok lets on the biggest square we have 17 cm

17cm is the hypotenuse for the right triangle

The second largest's area is 225 cm^2

Sq root of 225 cm^2, is 15

To find x, lets plug the info we have to the pythagorean theorom

a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\a^2 + 15^2 = 17^2\\a^2 + 225 = 289\\\\289 - 225 = a^2\\64=a^2\\a = 8 cm

The side length of the smallest Square is 8 cm

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!
