iren [92.7K]

Method 1:

$4\dfrac{2}{5}=4\dfrac{2\cdot2}{5\cdot2}=4\dfrac{4}{10}=4.4\\\\4\dfrac{2}{5}\cdot16.5=4.4\cdot16.5=72.6$

Method 2:

$16.5=\dfrac{165}{10}=\dfrac{165:5}{10:5}=\dfrac{33}{2}\\\\4\dfrac{2}{5}=\dfrac{4\cdot5+2}{5}=\dfrac{22}{5}\\\\4\dfrac{2}{5}\cdot16.5=\dfrac{22}{5}\cdot\dfrac{33}{2}=\dfrac{11}{5}\cdot\dfrac{33}{1}=\dfrac{363}{5}=72\dfrac{3}{5}$

Hb=3.5, hd=2.25, hb+hd=7,

From the third, we can say hb=7-hd and we are told that:

3.5hb+2.25hd=19.5 using hb found above in this equation gives you:

3.5(7-hd)+2.25hd=19.5

24.5-3.5hd+2.25hd=19.5

-1.25hd=-5

hd=4
