If there were 49 cars in a line that stretched 528 feet, what is the average car length? assume that the cars are lined up bumper-to-bumper
Answer: We are given there are 49 cars
Also these 49 cars are in a line stretched 528 feet.
Now the average length of the car is:
Average length = 
=
Therefore, the average length of car is 10.78 feet
Eighths and their multiples are common fractions which I recommend memorizing, but to actually solve this, you use the literal meaning of a fraction and divide 5 by 8. See the long-division below (it was surprisingly difficult to type, so I hope it helps!).
To round 0.625 to the nearest hundredth, we go to the second decimal place, which is 5, so we round up to 0.63.
Word form: one hundred one and six hundredths.
expanded form: 100+1+0.06
The answer would defintley be 69 if you want the right answer.
I would use 100 as the denominator because it can not be simplified as a whole number
