Justin's hair is 3 1/4 inches long. How long will it be in 2 months if it grows 1/2 inch each month? Which method will NOT give the correct number of inches?

Respuesta :

I know this is super late but I want to help others who struggle on this.

Answer:

Multiply 3 1/4 × 2, and then add 1/2.

This method does NOT give the correct number of inches.

The length of Mathew's hair after 2 months will be 4 1/4 inches.

What is the ratio?

The ratio is defined as the comparison of one number with another. Or defining that the one number is how many times the other number.

Now it is given that Justin's hair is 3 1/4 inches it grows 1/2 inch each month

So the growth of Mathew's hair after two months will be calculated as:-

=3 1/4 + 2*1/2

=3 1/4 + 1

=4 1/4 inches

Hence the length of Mathew's hair after 2 months will be 4 1/4 inches.
