3.4 - 2/3 > x
2) simplify 3.4 - 2/3 to 8.2/3
8.2/3 > x
3) Simplify 8.2/3 to 2.733333.
2.733333 > x

To find the missing dimension you will use the formula for finding the volume of a prism and solve for the missing dimension. In this case 2ft is how deep the pool is and you will solve for the width of the pool.
V = Bh, where B is the area of the base. In this case, use the area of a trapezoid formula.
286 = 1/2h(8 +13)2
<u>286</u> = <u>21h</u>

h = 13.6
The width of the wading pool is approximately 13.6 feet.
It was reduced because as you can see on the scale the actual picture has larger spaces between the numbers.
$122.57 • 4 + $555.28 = $1,045.56
$136.71 • 4 + $585.34 = $1,132.18
$1,132.18 - $1,045.56 = $86.62

The edge lengths of a triangle are inversely proportional to 2,3 and 4.
The actual proportions of the lengths are then
12(1/2:1/3:1/4)=6:4:3
The longest side
= 39* (6/(6+4+3)
= 39*6/13

2. 63 breads : 35 kg flour
is the same as
54 breads : x kg flour
Cross multiply and get
x=54*35/63=30
30 kg of flour are needed to make 54 breads.
