Please help ASAP.
a torch and battery cost £2.50 all together.
the torch costs £1.50 more than the battery.
what fraction of the total is the torch?
give your answer in it's simplest form.

3/5

2.50-1.50=1.00

1.00 is the price of the battery. Since the torch cost 1.50 more than the battery we just subtract what we know is how much more the torch cost from the total cost. While this has no meaning to the question I just wanted to put this in here.

1.50/2.50=0.6

First we divide 1.50 by 2.50 to get it as a decimal. Which gives us 0.6. now we put 6/10 then try to simplify it.

6/2=3

10/2=5

3/5 is our answer

PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I GOT IT CORRECT

-4

step-by-step explanation:

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
