A basketball player is 6 2/3 feet tall his infant son is 1/4 as tall how tall is his son
To find the height of the basketball player's son, you will need to multiply the basketball player's height by 1/4.
First, convert the basketball player's height from a mixed number to an improper fraction:
6 2/3 = (6*3 + 2)/3 = 20/3
Then, multiply the basketball player's height by 1/4:
(20/3) * (1/4) = 20/12 = 5/3
Therefore, the basketball player's son is 5/3 feet tall.
To find the height of the player's son, we'll first need to convert both heights into the same unit.
The player is 6 2/3 feet tall. To convert this mixed number to an improper fraction, we multiply the whole number (6) by the denominator (3) and add the numerator (2), resulting in 20/3.
Next, the son is 1/4 as tall as the player. We can express this as a fraction by taking 1/4 of the player's height.
To calculate this, multiply the player's height by 1/4:
(20/3) * (1/4) = 20/12 = 5/3
Therefore, the son is 5/3 feet tall.
To find out how tall the basketball player's infant son is, we need to multiply the player's height by 1/4.
The basketball player is 6 2/3 feet tall.
To convert this mixed number into an improper fraction, we multiply the whole number (6) by the denominator (3) and add the numerator (2). This gives us 6/3 + 2/3 = 8/3.
Now we multiply 8/3 by 1/4:
(8/3) * (1/4) = (8 * 1) / (3 * 4) = 8/12 = 2/3.
Therefore, the basketball player's infant son is 2/3 feet tall.
