Answer:
a*b = 1/2
a/ b = 8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 0.66666 and b = 0.75
To multiply it we write the decimal numbers in fraction form
a= 0.666666...
Multiply by 10 on both sides
10 a = 6.66666...
a = 0.66666...
Subtract the second equation
9a = 6
divide by 9 on both sides

so 0.6666 = 2/3
Now we convert 0.75 into fraction form

Multiply top and bottom by 100 to remove decimal

so 0.75 is 3/4
a= 2/3 and b = 3/4


Part 1)
we have
the scale is 
the distance on a map is 
we know that
The scale is equal to the distance on a map divided by the real distance
Let
x------> distance on a map
y-------> real distance
S-------> scale

In this part we have

Find the value of y

Substitute the values


Convert to kilometers

Part 2)
In this part we have

Find the value of x

Substitute the values


Convert to centimeters

therefore
the answer is
The distance is 
Answer:
- <u>Option A. about 100.5ft²</u>

Explanation:
Since the <em>bases</em> must not be painted, their areas are <em>not included</em> in the calculation.
The <em>surface</em> to paint, of each pillar, is equal to the lateral area of a<em> cylinder </em>with he dimensions given.
The formula for the laeral area of a cylinder is:

Substitute including the conversion factor to convert inches to feet:

Let the youngest sister be n years
Lana will be 2n years, as her youngest sister is half her age
The age of the twins separately will be 2n-2 as they are 2 years younger than Lana
So, the equation looks like this:
n + 2n + 2(2n-2) = 45
Now solve for n:
3n + 4n - 4 = 45
7n - 4 = 45
7n = 49
n = 7
So the youngest sister is 7, Lana is 14 and the twins are 12. 14 + 12 + 12 + 7 =45
