Question

A park is 9/10 mile long and 4/5 mile wide what is the area of the park

Answer 1

Length=3/4 mi and width=1/2 mile so

L:W=(3/4):(1/2) by convention we will express this ratio with integers...multiplying both fractions by 4 we get:

L:W=3:2

Answer 2

Length=3/4 mi and width=1/2 mile so

L:W=(3/4):(1/2) by convention we will express this ratio with integers...multiplying both fractions by 4 we get:

Area =3:2
