Multiply straight across
5/1 * 3/4 = 15/4
now change it into a mixed number
3 3/4
7 because 7x3= 21 and 21 + the 7 cats comes to an equal 28
Your answer would be 14 and 2/3
Answer:
The final position is 5 feet below the back of the truck
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to solve the problem
- A crane lifts a pallet of concrete blocks 8 feet from the back of
a truck
- The crane lowers the pallet 13 feet after the truck drives away
- Assume that the zero level of the position of the ballet of concrete
blocks is the back of the truck
∵ The crane lifts the pallet of concrete blocks 8 feet from the back
of the truck
- That means it take the pallet from zero to 8
∴ The height of the pallet of concrete blocks is 8 feet over
the starting position
∵ The crane lowers the pallet of concrete blocks 13 feet
- That means the crane lower the pallet from the height 8 and
lift it down 13 feet, so we must to take out from the 8 feet the
13 feet to find the final position of the pallet of concrete blocks
∴ The pallet position is ⇒ 8 - 13 = -5
∴ The position of the pallet of concrete blocks is 5 feet below the
starting position which is the back of the truck
* The final position is 5 feet below the back of the truck
Fact #1:
A cube has six faces.
Fact #2:
Every one of them has the same area.
Fact #3:
The surface area of each face is (the length of the cube's side)²
Now that I look at this one more carefully, the only thing you need to know
to solve it is Fact #3. (But you can keep the others and save them for later.)
The surface area of each face is (the length of the cube's side)²
64 is the (length of the cube's side)²
Can you find a number that gives you 64 when you multiply it by itself ?
That's the length of the cube's side.
Hint: If you don't get ' 8 ', work on it a little more.
