lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Hi Friend!

The Correct Answer is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

LCD(-1/5, 7/10) = 10

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

Mark wants to fence 4 rectangular gardens, each with a length of 9 1/4 feet and a width of 4 1/2feet. What is the length of fenc
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

110 ft  

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of fencing is four times the perimeter of one garden.

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is  

P = 2l + 2w

The total perimeter for all four rectangles is

P = 4× (2l + 2w) = 8l + 8w

Data:

 l = 9¼ ft

w = 4½ ft

Calculation:

P = 8l + 8w = 8×9¼ + 8×4½ = 72⁸/₄ + 32⁸/₂ =(72 + 2) + (32 + 4) = 74 + 36 = 110 ft

The total length of fencing is 110 ft.
