Question

23/147 yd × 3/14 after reducing them by a factor of 2/147 what are the original dimensions of the playground in yards? Write your answer with mixed numbers

Answer 1

Answer:

So the dimensions are 11 1/2 yds × 15 3/4 { 11 whole number 1 by 2 yards multiplied by 15 whole number 3 by 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here multiplicative property will be used .

a*1/a= 1

1* a/1= a   ( reciprocal)

23/147 yd × 3/14 will be multiplied with the reciprocal of the factor 2/147 to

get the original number.

23/147 yd*147/2 × 3/14*147/2

23/2 yds  × 441/28

11 1/2 yds × 15 3/4

So the dimensions are 11 1/2 yds × 15 3/4  11 whole number 1 by 2  multiplied by 15 whole number 3 by 4.
