Question

a picture is 7 whole 3 by 5 cm wide . how much should it be trimmed to fit in a frame 7 whole 3 by 10cm wide

Answer 1

Answer:

The picture should be trimmed $\frac{3}{10}\ cm$  or 3 by 10 cm to fit in a frame.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A picture is 7 whole 3 by 5 cm wide.

A frame 7 whole 3 by 10 cm wide.

Now, to find the length should the picture be trimmed to fit into the frame.

Length of the picture = $7\frac{3}{5} \ cm$ = $\frac{38}{5}\ cm.$

Length of the frame = $7\frac{3}{10}\ cm=\frac{73}{10}\ cm.$

Now, to get the length of the picture to be trimmed we subtract the length of the frame from the length of the picture:

$\frac{38}{5}-\frac{73}{10}$

$=\frac{76-73}{10}$

$=\frac{3}{10}\ cm.$

Therefore, the picture should be trimmed $\frac{3}{10}\ cm$ 3 by 10 cm to fit in a frame.
