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
