Joanne buys a rectangular rug with and area of 35/4 square meters. The length of the rug is 7/2 meters. What is the width,in met
ers, of the rug?
1 answer:
The area is calculated as L * W
L = 7/2
A = 35/4
35/4 = 7/2 * x /multiply both sides by 4
35 = 2*7 * 4x
35 = 14 * 4x
4x = 35/14
4x = 5/2
x = 5/2 / 4
x = 5/2 * 1/4
x = 5/8
Check if its correct, I might be wrong :)

Answer: 0.685 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Fraction: 180/x = 3/100
cross multiply: 18000 = 3x
divide ea. side by 3: x = $6,000
Amt. of sales = $6,000
First you have to find a common denominator which is 8.
1/2 =4/8
7/8 - 4/8 = 3/8
So the answer is 3/8.
