Concept explainers
The length of the gym.
Answer to Problem 60SGR
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The length,
Length of the gym is 12 inches.
Concept Used:
- To get rid of a number in addition from one side, subtract the same number from both sides of equal sign.
- To get rid of a number in subtraction from one side, add the same number both sides of equal sign.
- To get rid of a number in multiplication from one side, divide the same number from both sides of equal sign.
- To get rid of a number in division from one side, multiply the same number both sides of equal sign.
Rules of Addition/ Subtraction:
- Two numbers with similar sign always get added and the resulting number will carry the similar sign.
- Two numbers with opposite signs always get subtracted and the resulting number will carry the sign of larger number.
Rules of Multiplication/ Division:
- The product/quotient of two similar sign numbers is always positive.
- The product/quotient of two numbers with opposite signs is always negative.
Calculation:
In order to find the actual length of the new gym, whose length in builder’s blueprint is 12 inches, use the
Thus, the actual length of the new gym is
