I don't really know.. If I wasted your time. I just wanted to say Hi to the world! :D
how long is the real motocycle
To find the length of the real motorcycle, we can set up a proportion using the given information.
Let's call the length of the real motorcycle "x".
According to the problem, the real motorcycle is 18 times as large as the model motorcycle. Therefore, we can set up the equation:
x/5 1/16 = 18
Now let's convert the mixed fraction "5 1/16" into an improper fraction.
5 1/16 = (5 * 16 + 1) / 16 = 81/16
Substituting this into the equation, we have:
x/(81/16) = 18
To isolate x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 81/16, which is 16/81.
x = 18 * (16/81)
Simplifying the right side of the equation, we have:
x = 288/81
Now, we can simplify this fraction by dividing the numerator by the denominator:
x = 3 15/27
Further simplifying, we have:
x = 3 5/9
Therefore, the length of the real motorcycle is approximately 3 5/9 inches.
