Answer:
feet tall
Step-by-step explanation:
Ajax is "5 and 1 fourth feet tall", which can be written as the mixed number 
.
His sister is "3 eighths foot shorter", so she's 3/8 feet shorter than 5 1/4.
So, this is just a subtraction problem:
To solve this, we want to convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction, which is: 
. Now, we want to find a common denominator. In this case, that common denominator is 8, so 
.
Finally, we subtract 3/8 from 42/8: 
. So, Ajax's sister is 39/8 feet. Converting this into a mixed number, we have: 39/8 = 4
.
Therefore, Ajax's sister is feet tall.
Hope this helps!

The entire large rectangle above is 38 units long and 2 units wide.
Its area is length times width, so the area is 2 * 38.
38 is also the same as 30 + 8, so the area can also be written as 2(30 + 8).
The left rectangle is 30 units long and 2 units wide. Its area is 2 * 30.
The right rectangle is 2 units long and 8 units wide. Its area is 2 * 8.
If you add the areas of the small rectangles, you get
2 * 30 + 2 * 8
If you add the two small areas, you get the area of the laerge rectangle, so
2(30 + 8) = 2 * 30 + 2 * 8
which is an example of the distributive property.
Hey there!
An outlier in a data set is a number that is WAY larger or WAY smaller than the others in the data set, or does not really fit in the specified "range". In the first one, 452 is way greater than everything else, so it would be the outlier.
In the second data set, 5 would be our outlier because it is much smaller than all the other numbers.
In the last data set, the numbers are pretty close together, but we need to find one that isn't inside the small range. 0.201 appears to be the outlier in this case.
Therefore, here are your answers :)
15: 452
16: 5
17: 0.201

14 2/5 or 14.4 or 72/5 or 18
A percent mean per 100 so 500% is 500/100
which is 5, and I guess you could use 500/100 and then just divide each by 100 to get the fraction 5/1.
so 5.0 as a decimal
5/1 as a fraction
