Answer:
3.3 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the distance between the big side and small side of the shapes:
- Set up an algebraic equation: 15x = 7
- Divide each side by 15 to cancel out the 15 next to x. It should now look like this: x = 7/15
To solve for x:
- [tex]\frac{7}{1}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{7}{15} = \frac{49}{15}[/tex]
- 49/15 = 3.266...
- 3.266... rounded = 3.3 centimeters
I hope this helps!
