Question

If a lizard is90 centimeters long and 2/3 is the tail how long is taul

Answer 1

The length of the tail is 60 centimetres

Explanation:

Given:

Total length of the lizard = 90 centimetres.

Tail is 2/3 long

To Find:

Length of the tail =?

Solution:

The question states that the length of the tail is
`(2)/(3)` of the length of the lizard.

So let the length of the Lizard's tail be x

Then

x=
`(2)/(3)` of the total length of the lizard

x=
`(2)/(3)` of 90

x =
`(2)/(3) * 90`

x =
`(2* 90)/(3)`

x =
`(180)/(3)`

x = 60
