A motor racing curcuit has length of 5 5/6 miles. A straight section of the curcuit has length of 1 1/4 miles. What fraction of the curcuit is the straight section m. Give your answer in its simplest form

3/14

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a motor racing curcuit has length of 5 5/6 miles and a straight section of the curcuit has length of 1 1/4 miles.

To calculate the fraction of the curcuit that is the straight section m, we divide 1 1/4 miles by 5 5/6 miles. We need do convert the fractions to improper fraction first. This will be:

1 1/4 = 5/4 and 5 5/6 = 35/6

This will then be:

= 5/4 ÷ 35/6

= 5/4 × 6/35

= 30/140

= 3/14

for the friend request.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.
