Question 181101
The height of a triangle is 4 2/3
The base of the triangle is 3/4
I need to find the area of the triangle.
;
Area of a triangle A = {{{1/2}}}b*h
:
Change the height to an improper fraction: 4*3 + 2 = {{{14/3}}}
:
A = {{{1/2}}} * {{{14/3}}} * {{{3/4}}}
You can simplify, cancel the 2 into the 14 and you have:
A = {{{7/3}}} * {{{3/4}}} = {{{21/12}}} or 1{{{9/12}}} reduces to: 1{{{3/4}}}
