randy is making a xylophone. So far, he has bars that are 1.75, 1 and 7 over 12 feet, and 1 and 2 over 3 feet. What is the length of the longest bar?
please. someoneeeeee

Respuesta :

Length of first bar = 1.75.

Length of second bar = [tex]1\frac{7}{12}[/tex]

Length of third bar = [tex]1\frac{2}{3}[/tex].

Let us convert [tex]1\frac{7}{12} \ and \ 1\frac{2}{3} \ in \ decimals.[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7}{12}=0.5833[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]1\frac{7}{12} = 1.5833[/tex]

[tex]1\frac{2}{3} = 1.667[/tex]

We can see that 1.75 is the longest out of 1.5833 and  1.667.

Therefore, length of longest bar is 1.75 feet.
