Question

You have to complete assembling a piece of machinery with various parts. Each part adds to the length of the item. There are 2 parts with a length of ¾ inches, and 3 parts with a length of 1 ⅝ inches.

Answer 1

I believe it is 6 and 3/8 inches

Answer 2

Answer: There is total length of the machinery after completing the assembling a piece of machinery with various parts is
`6(3)/(8)\ inches`

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of parts = 2

Length of parts is given by

`(3)/(4)\ inches`

Number of parts = 3

Length of parts is given by

`1(5)/(8)\ inches\\\\=(13)/(8)\ inches`

We need to complete assembling a piece of machinery with various parts.

According to question,

`2* (3)/(8)+3* (13)/(8)\\\\=(3)/(2)+(39)/(8)\\\\=(12+39)/(8)\\\\=(51)/(8)\\\\=6(3)/(8)\ inches`

Hence, there is total length of the machinery after completing the assembling a piece of machinery with various parts is
`6(3)/(8)\ inches`
