Question

6. Kula Kangri is 7554 m high. Mount Everest is about 1 1/6 the height of Kula Kangri. About how high is Mount Everest?​

Answer 1

Mount Everest is 8,813 m high.

Given height of Kula Kangri is 7554 m

Given that,

Kula Kangri ⇒ 7554m

Mount Everest ⇒
`1(1)/(6)` the height of Kula Kangri

So, to find the height of Mount Everest you have to multiply the height of Kula Kangri by
`1(1)/(6)`.

Before solving this, we have to make 1 1/6 as an improper fraction.

`1(1)/(6) = > (7)/(6)`

Let us solve it now.

⇒ 7554 ×
`1(1)/(6)`

⇒ 52878 ÷ 6

⇒ 8813 m

∴ Height of Mount Everest = 8813 m

Answer 2

8813 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Kula Kangri ⇒ 7554m

Mount Everest ⇒ 1 1/6 the height of Kula Kangri

So, to find the height of Mount Everest you have to multiply the height of Kula Kangri by 1 1/6.

Before solving this, we have to make 1 1/6 as an improper fraction.

`1(1)/(6) = > (7)/(6)`

Let us solve it now.

⇒ 7554 ×
`(7)/(6)`

⇒ 52878 ÷ 6

⇒ 8813 m
