The micrometre (International spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures;[1] SI symbol: μm) or micrometer (American spelling), alsocommonly known as a micron, is an SI derived unit of length equaling 1×10−6 of ametre (SI standard prefix "micro-" = 10−6); that is, one millionth of a metre (or one thousandth of a millimetre, 0.001 mm, or about 0.000039 inch).[1] The symbol μm is sometimes rendered as um if the symbol μ cannot be used, or if the writer is not aware of the distinction.<span>[citation needed]</span>
The micrometre is a common unit of measurement for wavelengths of infrared radiation as well as sizes of biological cells and bacteria and is also commonly used in plastics manufacturing.[1] Micrometres are the standard for grading wool by the diameter of the fibres; wool finer than 25 μm can be used for garments, while coarser grades are used for outerwear, rugs, and carpets.[2] The width of a single human hair ranges from approximately 10 to 200 μm. The first and longest human chromosome is 10μm in length.

You will need to convert them into improper fractions, subtract them, and convert them back to mixed numbers.
5 1/8 - 2 4/8
41/8 - 20/8
21/8
2 5/8
Your answer is 2 5/8.
Answer:
18.9
Step-by-step explanation:
First, lets solve for the fractions. You can divide the fractions from the top, to their bottom (4 divided by 5, 3 divided by 5), in this case, you get 1.4. Now you have to rewrite the problem: 1.4+3.5x5. You solve it, and get 18.9.
Answer:
x and y = 5√2.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a 45:45:90 triangle so length of x = length of y.
In this triangle the ratio of the sides is 1:1:√2
Finding length of x and y:
1/√2 = x/10
√2x = 10
x = 10/√2
= 10√2/2
= 5√2.
