The back wall in Maurice's bedroom measures 14 3/5 feet long. His new dresser measures 3 4/5 feet long. What length of the wall will be left after he places the dresser against the wall?

44/5 or 8 4/5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will convert them measurement to improper fractions

14 3/5 ->  63/5 the length of the bedroom

3 4/5 ->  19/5 the length of the dresser

Now we subtract simply

63/5 - 19/5 = 44/5 or 8 4/5 feet

answer:

it will cost 480 dollars to refurbish the larger wood floor

step-by-step explanation:

as it's a ratio of 4 that costs 384 dollars, divide the price by the ratio

96 dollars per unit of the ratio

now to get the price to refurbish the larger wood floor, times the price by the units

96 * 5 = 480

x=0
