You would need to do this with a graphing calculator
Take both mixed numbers (a whole number plus a fraction) and turn them into improper fractions ( a numerator (top number) bigger than the denominator (bottom number). To do this, multiply the denominator by the whole number, and add the result to the numerator.
5 5/8 will become 45/8
1 1/2 will become 3/2.
Area is length* width, so width would be Area/ length. So 45/8 is the area and 3/2 is the length. Now you have (45/8)/(3/2). To divide fractions, take the second fraction and flip the numerator and denominator, forming the reciprocal (2/3). Now multiply 45/8 and 2/3
The result is 90/24, and simplifying would get 15/4, or 3 3/4. This is the width(or length)
Answer:
1/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
2 x 6 = 12
1 2 3 4 5 6
1 2 3 4 5 6
4/12 = 1/3
Answer:
30 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the given information to set up a ratio...


We can solve this ratio using cross multiplication (multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second and the numerator of the second fraction by the denominator of the first):
120 = 4x
Divide both sides by 4
x=30 ft
