Answer 1

Given

Table which ahows an inspectors measurement of the lengths of four bridges

Find

Order from shortest to longest lengths of bridges.

Step-by-step explanation

First we convert the lengths of Bridges in improper form , then in decimal form.

`\begin{gathered} M=1(49)/(60)=(109)/(60)=1.817 \\ \\ N=1(79)/(100)=(179)/(100)=1.79 \\ \\ O=1(52)/(75)=(127)/(75)=1.693 \\ \\ P=1(97)/(120)=(217)/(120)=1.80 \end{gathered}`

so , O has shortest length and M has longest length.

Final Answer

Therefore ,

the order from shortest to longest is

Bridge O , Bridge N , Bridge P and Bridge M , so the correct option is 1
