Given:
10 yards required
5 2/3 yards on hand.
We need to subtract the yards on hand from the total yards required.
First, we need to convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction.
5 2/3 = ((5*3)+2)/3 = (15+2)/3 = 17/3
Second, we need to multiply 10 by a fraction that will give us the denominator of 3.
10 * 3/3 = (10*3)/3 = 30/3
Third, we do subtraction using our derived fractions.
30/3 - 17/3 = (30-17)/3 = 13/3
Lastly, we simplify the improper fraction. Improper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is greater than its denominator. Its simplified form is a mixed fraction.
13/3 = 4 1/3
Arliss needs to buy 4 1/3 yards more to complete the required yard length.
Answer:
25 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is a rectangle, the formula of the perimeter will be 2w+2l.
35(2)+2(x)=120.
2x=50
x=25
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- 10560 feet ⇒ 2 miles
- 10560/2 feet ⇒ 2/2 miles Divide both by 2 to find the unit ratio
- 5280 feet ⇒ 1 mile
- 5280*3 feet ⇒ 1*3 miles Triple both to find required number
- 15840 feet ⇒ 3 miles
