The decimal equivalent of 1/4 is 0.25.
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Question tests the ability to get quotient
Here, 32 ft is divided by 5’3”
Normally, ft is denoted by ' while inches is denoted by ". So we divide 32 ft by 5ft and 3 inches
First, we convert dimensions into similar units. To convert 5’3” to ft, we divide 3” by 12 hence 3÷12=0.25'
The total is now 5.25'
Now
32'÷5.25'=6.1538461538461
This means, we shall obtain 6 whole pieces with some remainder. Since the question needs the whole pieces only, then the answer is 6
5/38 is 0.13 because you have to divide them
