2.125 = 17/8 = 21/8 as a fraction

Step by Step Solution

To convert the decimal 2.125 to a fraction follow these steps:

Step 1: Write down the number as a fraction of one:

2.125 = 2.125/1

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:

As we have 3 numbers after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 1000. So,

2.125/1 = (2.125 x 1000)/(1 x 1000) = 2125/1000.

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(2125,1000) = 125. So,

(2125÷125)/(1000÷125) = 17/8 when reduced to the simplest form.

As the numerator is greater than the denominator, we have an IMPROPER fraction, so we can also express it as a MIXED NUMBER, thus 2125/1000 is also equal to 2 1/8 when expressed as a mixed number.

<span>Using the Pythagorean theorum we can solve this v a^2+b^2= c^2. A is the distance from base of house to ladder A= 1.5, c ifls length of ladder, c= 10. (1.5)^2 + ;b^2 = (10)^2. Solve for b. B= 9.88. 12 foot height of house - 9.88 feet to top of angled ladder = 2.11 from top of ladder to edge of roof</span>

Semenov [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

the batting wang xiu ying uses to fill quilts has a thermal conductivity rate of 0.03 watts (W) per meter(m) per degree celsius. what is the batting thermal conductivity when w/cm•c

Given

K = 0.03W/m°C

Required

Convert K to W/cm°C

Since 1m = 100cm,

K = 0.03w/1×100cm°C

K = 3×10^-2w/10² cm°C

K = 3 × 10^-2w/10² cm°C

K = 3w× 10^{-2-2}cm°C

K = 3w×10^-4cm°C

K = 0.0003w/cm°C

Angle A and B are supplementary. Angle a has a measure of 80. What is the measure of angle B? The measure of angle B is

ololo11 [35]

Well when two angles are supplementary they equal 180.
So if angle A is 80 degrees then that would mean that angle B equals 100 degrees.

Natalka [10]

Answer:

a graph that connects 3 points connected by a straight line that passes through (5, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph is the representation of numerical data by one or more lines that give visibility to the relationship between the data. Understanding graphics today is an essential task, as they are very present in our daily lives, whether in newspapers, magazines, the internet, etc.

If a teacher asks each student to take a piece of graph paper containing a graph, study the graph and tell which graph represents graphs of equivalent proportions. The student who has a graph that connects 3 points connected by a straight line passing through (5, 0) is the student who should speak.
