Answer:

[tex]\frac{62}{16}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Length of the tile = 3.87298 inches.

The markings on the tape are marked in [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex] inches.

As, we see that,

[tex]\frac{64}{16}[/tex] = 4 inches.

So, the required mark will be before than [tex]\frac{64}{16}[/tex] mark.

Since, [tex]\frac{62}{16}[/tex] = 3.875

Hence, the mark closest to 3.87298 inches is [tex]\frac{62}{16}[/tex].

Answer:

The length of tile C = 3 14/16 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of tile C = 3.87298 inch. The point showing 3.87298 lies somewhere after the whole number 3. To find that point, divide the decimal part by 1/16. That gives the number of sixteenths equals to 0.87298. You don't want a decimal value of 1/16, so round this value to the nearest whole number.

0.87298 inches = 087298 divide by 1/16

= 0.87298 x 16

= 13.96768 divisions
