Question

Please help with this one question thank you.

Answer 1

Since there are all parallel, we can create a proportion to find the answer.

Let x be the length of plot 3 across Cheshire Road.


`(x)/(40) = (56)/(48)`

Multiply both sides by 40 to get our answer.


`x= 40* (56)/(48)`

Simplify the right side of the equation.


`x= 46 (2)/(3)`

Hope this helps and have an awesome day! :)

Answer 2

40/48 = x / 56
48x = 40*66
48x = 2240
x = 46 2/3

answer is A.

46 2/3 yards
