Question

Find the area of a rectangle park that is 3 3/5 In long and 6 2/3 in wide. From a rope 6 m long two pieces of the length 2 3/5 m and 3 3/10 m are cut off what is the length of the remaining rope

Answer 1

Area = 24 square inches

`(1)/(10)` meters

Explanation:

The length of the rectangle is
`3(3)/(5) =(18)/(5)` inches

And the width of the rectangle is
`6(2)/(3) =(20)/(3)` inches.

So the area of the rectangle is = Length × Width =
`(18)/(5) * (20)/(3) =24` square inches. (Answer)

From a rope 6 m long two pieces of the length
`2(3)/(5) \textrm{meters and } 3(3)/(10)` meters are cut off.

Then the length of the remaining rope will be
`(6-2(3)/(5) -3(3)/(10))` meters

=
`(6-(13)/(5) -(33)/(10) )` meters

=
`(60-26-33)/(10)` meters

=
`(1)/(10)` meters (Answer)
