To find the decimal that represents the fraction of students who prefer Fruit Crunchies, you need to divide the number of students who prefer Fruit Crunchies (13) by the total number of students surveyed (50).
13/50 = 0.26
So the decimal representing the fraction of students who prefer Fruit Crunchies is 0.26.
For the second question, you need to find Rolando's height, given that Emmer is 46 1/2 inches tall and Rolando is 2 5/8 inches shorter than Emmer.
To find Rolando's height, you need to subtract 2 5/8 inches from 46 1/2 inches.
46 1/2 - 2 5/8 = 44 7/8
So Rolando's height is 44 7/8 inches.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. 43 7/8.
