Hi!
We are given the information found in the picture below.
Note: The directions aren't correct, but the triangle works for this problem.
The "direct path" is the hypotenuse of this triangle.
To find this, we use the Pythagorean Theorem, where 
and 
are 2 legs of the triangle, and 
is the hypotenuse, aka the longest side of any triangle:
We know and and want
Therefore, is approximately 
Yes I think it really is the correct answer
Answer: 3/8 can’t go to 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
It is 18-6 out of all the other ones
1 cube= 1 unit
1 Rod (Long)= 10 units
10 Rods (Longs)= 1 flat (1 flat=100 units)
10 flat =1 cube(1 cube=1000 units)
83×10= 830
2×10=20
830×20= 16,600
Just wanted to add more to help you understand why 83 is multiplied by ten and 2 is multiplied by 10. Its because when we use Base ten blocks, tens represent 1 Rod (Long)= 10 units. Hope it helps more.
