Juniors brother is 1 1/2 meters tall. Junior is 1 1/5 of his brother height. How tall is Junior
To find how tall Junior is, you need to multiply his brother's height by the fraction representing Junior's height as compared to his brother's height.
1 1/5 = 6/5
So, Junior is 6/5 times the height of his brother.
Thus, Junior's height is (6/5) * (1 1/2) meters.
To solve this, you can multiply the whole number and the numerator separately, and then add the results:
(6/5) * (3/2) = (6 * 3) / (5 * 2) = 18/10
Next, you can simplify this fraction by dividing the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
18/10 = (18/2) / (10/2) = 9/5
So, Junior is 9/5 meters tall.
To find out how tall Junior is, we need to calculate 1 1/5 of his brother's height, which is 1 1/2 meters.
To convert the mixed number 1 1/5 to an improper fraction, we multiply the whole number (1) by the denominator (5) and add the numerator (1). This gives us (1 * 5) + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6.
Now we have 6/5 of his brother's height, which is (6/5) * (1 1/2) meters.
To multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. Thus, (6 * 1) / (5 * 2) = 6/10 = 3/5.
Therefore, Junior is 3/5 of his brother's height.
To find out how tall Junior is, we need to calculate 1 1/5 of his brother's height.
First, convert Junior's brother's height from a mixed number to an improper fraction.
1 1/2 = (2 * 1 + 1) / 2 = 3/2
Next, multiply Junior's brother's height (3/2) by 1 1/5.
(3/2) * (1 1/5) = (3/2) * (6/5)
To multiply fractions, multiply their numerators and denominators.
(3 * 6) / (2 * 5) = 18/10
Simplify the fraction if possible.
18/10 = 9/5
Therefore, Junior is 9/5 of his brother's height, which is equivalent to 1.8 meters. So, Junior is 1.8 meters tall.
