The height of a triangle is 4 2/3 \n" ); document.write( "The base of the triangle is 3/4 \n" ); document.write( "I need to find the area of the triangle. \n" ); document.write( "----------------- \n" ); document.write( "Area = bh/2 (base x height)/2 \n" ); document.write( "A = (4 2/3)*(3/4)*(1/2) \n" ); document.write( "A = (14/3)*(3/8) I multiplied 3/4 by 1/2 to do less typing \n" ); document.write( "A = 42/24 \n" ); document.write( "A = 7/4 square units, or 1 3/4. 7/4 is clearer, and wouldn't be confused with 13/4, as 1 3/4 might. 1.75 would work, too. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
