Answer:

Which means that this equation is also true: 8/9 > 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Is 8/9 less than 1/9? Is 8/9 smaller than 1/9? These are the same questions with one answer.

To get the answer, we first convert each fraction into decimal numbers. We do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:

8/9 = 0.889

1/9 = 0.111

Then, we compare the two decimal numbers to get the answer.

0.889 is not less than 0.111.

Therefore, 8/9 is not less than 1/9 and the answer to the question "Is 8/9 less than 1/9?" is no.

The sector COB is cut from the circle with center O. The ratio of the area of the sector removed from the whole circle to the ar

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

$Ratio = \frac{R^2 - r^2 }{ r^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for circles

Required

Ratio of the outer sector to inner sector

The area of a sector is:

$Area = \frac{\theta}{360}\pi r^2$

For the inner circle

$r \to radius$

The sector of the inner circle has the following area

$A_1 = \frac{\theta}{360}\pi r^2$

For the whole circle

$R \to Radius$

The sector of the outer sector has the following area

$A_2 = \frac{\theta}{360}\pi (R^2 - r^2)$

So, the ratio of the outer sector to the inner sector is:

$Ratio = A_2 : A_1$

$Ratio = \frac{\theta}{360}\pi (R^2 - r^2) : \frac{\theta}{360}\pi r^2$

Cancel out common factor

$Ratio = R^2 - r^2 : r^2$

Express as fraction

$Ratio = \frac{R^2 - r^2 }{ r^2}$
