Hello there! Thank you for asking your question here at Brainly. I will be assisting you today with answering this problem, and will be teaching you how to deal with it on your own in the future.
First, let's take a look at our question, and evaluate it.
"The area of a rectangular patio is 5 5/8 square yards, and it's length is 1 1/2 yards. What is the patio's width in yards?"
To clarify this problem, we are looking for the patio's width.
Let's first understand what the area of a rectangular shape is.
The formula for the area of a rectangle is "Length times Width", or "L • W".
So this is how the equation should look like:
A = L • W
We have our area, 5 5/8, and we have our length, 1 1/2.
To make things more simple, let's convert our fractions to decimals. Now, to convert our fractions to decimals, let's set our denominators (the numbers on the bottom of a fraction) equal to another fraction, with x as the numerator (the numbers on the top of a fraction) and 100 as the denominator.
So we have 1/2 and x/100. Divide 100 by 2 to find x (as 1/2 of anything is dividing by 2).
100 / 2 = 50, so 1 1/2 = 1.50 as a decimal.
Now, let's try 5/8.
1/8 = 0.125, so multiply 0.125 by 5.
0.125 • 5 = 0.625.
5 5/8 = 5.625 as a decimal.
So, now we have our equation:
A = L • W
Plug in our numbers.
5.625 = 1.50x
To isolate and solve for x, we need to divide both sides by 1.50, so let's do that.
5.625 / 1.50 = 3.75
1.50x / 1.50 = x
We are now left with:
x = 3.75
Your answer is:
The patio's width is 3.75 yards.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
They need 2 and 1/2 rolls.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = length x width
A = l x w
A = 20 x 3
A = 60 ft²
If 60 ft² = 1 roll
What about 150 ft² = ?
= (150 x 1) ÷ 60
= 150 ÷ 60
= 2.5
= 2 and 1/2 rolls
Answer:
true

Answer:
A batting average is simply the ratio of hits/at-bats. So, if Karen were up to bat 1,000 times and she got a hit 444 times, that makes her batting average 444/1,000 = .444.
The good news is you can multiply this ratio by number of at bats to get the number of hits.
So, 45 hits x .444 = your answer.
Hope that helps.
