I would convert from feet to inches and say an 9 in long board is cut.
Now just divide 9 by 6
9/6=1.5 inches
The three consecutive integers are 26, 27, 28
If you would like to find the numerator of a fraction, you can do this using the following steps:
denominator ... 6 * 5 = 30
numerator ... x = ?
36 = numerator / denominator
36 = x / 30
x = 36 * 30
x = 1080
The correct result would be 1080.
Here is the answer to the given problem. So, what Christina wants to find out is the sum of the length after 10 throws given that in each throw, it retracts 70% of the original length. So to continue the given data, here are the results:
4: 1.029
5: 0.7203
6: 0.50421
7: 0.352947
8: 0.2470629
9: 0.17294403
10: 0.12106082
Since she wants to find the sum of the length after 10 throws, we are just going to add the lengths above. So the answer would be this: 9.71752475. To round this off to the nearest hundredth, the answer would be 9.72. Hope this helps.
The answer is 1 3/4 pounds. If you convert 1/2 into fourths it would be 2/4, If you add 1/4+2/4=3/4. After that, you add the whole.
