Answer:
I believe Jamal is correct, because he is just doing it an easy way. Instead of converting the mixed number to an improper fraction he is adding the measurements step by step.
Hope it Helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
Reduce the expression, if possible, by cancelling the common factors.
Answer:
length PQ = 8.9 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The picture below completes the question you asked. From the picture above RSTU is a rectangle . The two shaded square has a length of sides 8 m and 4 m respectively. The legs of the triangle is the sides of the 2 squares. Therefore, the triangle is a right angle triangle. The adjacent side is 4 m while the opposite side is 8 m.
Using Pythagoras theorem the hypotenuse of the triangle can be calculated below.
Pythagoras theorem
c² = a² + b² Therefore,
c² = 4² + 8²
c² = 16 + 64
c² = 80
square root both sides
c = √80
c = 8.94427191
c ≈ 8.9 m
length PQ = 8.9 m
