Jason has a piece of wire that is 62.4 inches long. He cuts the wire into 3 equal pieces. Which is the best estimate of the length of each piece of wire.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The best estimate of the length of each piece of wire is  20.8 inches (Approx).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the length of each pieces of wire be x.

As given

Jason has a piece of wire that is 62.4 inches long.

He cuts the wire into 3 equal pieces.

Than the equation becomes

3x = 62.4

x = (62.4)/(3)

x = 20.8 inches (Approx)

Therefore the best estimate of the length of each piece of wire is  20.8 inches (Approx).
Answer 2
Answer: 62.4/3=20.8 is one of the 3 wires that are equal

What is the ratio of beaks to wings in a flock of birds

Answers

Answer:

The ratio of beaks to wings in a flock of birds is 1:2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Beaks are the hand and pointed structure that sticks out from a bird's face.

The number of beaks of a bird is one and the number of wings is two.

We need to find the ratio of beaks to wings in a flock of birds

(beaks)/(wings) =(1)/(2)

Thus the ratio of beaks to wings in a flock of birds is 1:2.

This shows that there's one beak for each pair of wings.
the ratio of beaks to wings in a flock of birds is 1:2

Find the result when 90 is decreased by 35%.
58.5
75.6
60.5
78.5

Answers

In this question, it's asking you to find the number when 90 is subtracted by 35%. So, you find 35% of 90 which is 31.5 and you minus it from 90 = 58.5.

> 90 x 35% = 31.5
> 90 - 31.5 = 58.5
