You can compare fractions by using the benchmark fraction of 1/2. To use this in order to make comparisons, you will need to look carefully at what the numerator and The denominators are in a fraction. If the top number, the numerator is less than half of the denominator, then the fraction would be less then the benchmark 1/2. If the numerator is more than half of the denominator then the fraction would be more than the benchmark 1/2. For example, 3/4 is more than 1/2 because the numerator of three is more than half of the denominator 4.
For this answer it is really going to depend on what you are rounding to. You need to start by dividing 15 by 8. This gives you 1.875 feet. If you are wanting your answer to the nearest hundreth of a foot your answer would be 1.88 feet.
If you are wanting your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot your answer would be 1.9 feet. And if you are wanting your answer to the nearest food your answer would be 2 feet.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer would be 2985000x
Okay. fist off don't think of them as 5 units each, but 1. so if you were to put it on graphing paper and box squares each time. you would be able to get 8 in for both sides to make a square. Area then would be 1600ft squared because 8 ×5 is 40 and 40×40 is 1600. then you calculate how many squares you used. 8×8=64. and 80-64=16 so 16 pieces are left over. then 9×9 (increasing the square) is 81. so 17 pieces to increase it.
Good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
