Answer: 5.37 as a mixed number is 5 37/100
To write a decimal number as a mixed number, you must separate the whole part of the decimal part:
5.37 = 5 + 0.37 = 5 0.37
And express the decimal part as a fraction:
0.37=37/100
Then:
Answer: 5.37 as a mixed number is 5 37/100
If the original side length is "s" and the original slant height is "h", the original surface area is
.. S = (base area) +(lateral area)
.. S = s² +(1/2)*(4s)*h
.. S = s(s +2h)
Now, if we make these replacements: s ⇒ 3s, h ⇒ h/5, we have
.. S' = (3s)(3s +2h/5)
.. S' = 9s² +(6/5)s*h . . . . . . . the formula for the modified area (in terms of original dimensions)
_____
Of course, in terms of the modified dimensions, the formula is the same:
.. S' = s'(s' +2h')
