Going out with my friends and cutting stuff
Tree height: 32 2/5
Flagpole: 5/9 * 32 2/5
Ramiro: 3/10 * Flagpole
5/9 * 32 2/5 =
= 5/9 * 162/5 =
= 1/9 * 162/1 =
= 1/1 * 18/1 =
= 1 * 18 =
= 18 [feet]
So the flagpole is 18 feet tall. Ramiro is 3/10 of its height, so:
3/10 * 18 =
= 54/10 =
= 5 4/10 =
= 5 2/5
Answer: Ramiro is 5 2/5 feet tall.
