Turn .055 into fraction

1 answer:

8 0

Write 0.055 as
0.055
1

Multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point.

0.055
1

The factors of 55 are: 1 5 11 55
The factors of 1000 are: 1 2 4 5 8 10 20 25 40 50 100 125 200 250 500 1000
The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for both 55 and 1000 is: 5
Now to reduce the fraction we divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF value.

=
0.055 x 1000
1 x 1000
=
55
1000

In order to reduce the fraction find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 55 and 1000. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.

Answer ( 55/1000
= 11/200)

What is the length of EF in the triangle? Show your work. HELP!

Zinaida [17]

The length of EF in the given triangle is 8.80 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

In the given triangle, the opposite side's length is 16.2 m, the adjacent side's length is x m while the triangle's hypotenuse measures 16.2 m units.

The angle given is 90°, this makes the triangle a right-angled triangle.

So first we calculate the angle of E and use that to find x.

Step 2:

As we have the values of the length of the opposite side and the hypotenuse, we can calculate the sine of the angle to determine the value of the angle of E.

$sinE = \frac{oppositeside}{hypotenuse} =\frac{13.6}{16.2} = 0.8395.$
