Answer:

The base of the banner is 30 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = base × height

Plug in the numbers:

127 1/2 = b × 4 1/4

Convert mixed fractions into improper fractions for easier calculations.

Improper fraction formula: (denominator × mixed number + numerator)/denoninator

(2 × 127 + 1)/2 = 255/2

(4 × 4 + 1)/4 = 17/4

Rewrite equation:

255/2 = b × 17/4

Isolate variable b by multiplying the reciprocal of 17/4 (which is 4/17).

1020/34 = b

Simplify.

30 = b
