Question

The length of a rectangular piece of cardboard is 1 4/5 meters. If its width is 2/3 of its length, what is the width of the cardboard?

Answer 1

6/5 or 1.2

Explanation:

First, you need to multiply the length by how much the width is of the length, which is 2/3, so you multiply 1 4/5 by 2/3 and you get 6/5. If you want the decimal form, then the answer will be 1.2.
