Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's analyze and solve the exercises from the image you provided.
1. Rewrite the decimals as fractions:
The task is to express each decimal as a fraction in its simplest form:
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
f)
g)
h)
2. Calculate the remaining area of land:
- The land has a length of 28 m and width of 16 m.
- 27.5% of the land is used.
- Find the total area of the land, then subtract the used portion to determine the remaining area.
I will work through these step by step. Let me calculate. Decimal to fraction conversion from fractions import Fraction
Decimals provided in the problem
decimals = [0.14, 0.022, 0.75, 0.135, 0.3742, 0.405, 0.5288, 0.4315]
Convert to fractions in simplest form
fractions = [Fraction(d).limit_denominator() for d in decimals]
Land problem
Dimensions of the land
length = 28 # meters width = 16 # meters total_area = length * width # Total area in square meters
Percentage of land used
used_percentage = 27.5 / 100 # Convert percentage to decimal used_area = total_area * used_percentage # Area used in square meters
Remaining area
remaining_area = total_area - used_area
fractions, total_area, used_area, remaining_area### Solutions:
