Mrs. Martin wants to place a ribbon around the outer edge of a rectangular mirror. The area of the mirror is 324 square inches. The width is of the mirror is 12 inches. How many inches of ribbon does Mrs. Martin need?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The inches of ribbon that Mrs. Martin needs will be equal to the perimeter of the rectangular mirror.

We know that the area of a rectangle equals the length times the width.

Area = length * width
324 square inches = length * 12 inches
length = 27 inches

The perimeter of a rectangle is two times the length plus two times the width.

Perimeter = length + length + width + width
Perimeter = 27 + 27 + 12 + 12
Perimeter = 54 + 24
Perimeter = 78 inches

Therefore, Mrs. Martin needs 78 inches of ribbon.

Write 2. 2/3 as an improper fraction

Answers

$2(2)/(3)=(2\cdot3+2)/(3)=(6+2)/(3)=(8)/(3)$

the answer is 8/3 you multiply 3 :by the 2 whole numbers and you get 3*2=6
now you add the numerator 2, so you get 2+6=8 now you put the numerator 8 over the 3 because the 3 is not moved, so you get 8/3

Is 11/12 greater than 4/8

Answers

No. 4/8 is greater than 11/12

11/12 because it is more than 1/2 (which is what 4/8 simplifies to!)

Solve the equation x/4+5/8=3/8

Answers

X/4 +5/8 = 3/8

X/4 = 3/8-5/8

X/4 = (3-5)/8

X/4 = -2/8

Multiply both sides by 4 we get

4x/4 = -8/8

X = -1
