Question

Ramiro is 3/10 as tall as the flagpole. The flagpole is 5/9 as tall as the nearby tree. The tree is 32 2/5 feet tall. How tall is Ramiro?

Answers

  1. Answer:
    5.4 feet
    Step-by-step explanation:
    Start with the flagpole. It is 5/9 of 32 2/5.
    32 2/5 = 162/5.
    5/9 * 162/5 = 162/9.
    Ramiro is 3/10 as tall as 162/9.
    3/10 * 162/9 = 27/5, or 5.4 feet tall
