Apark measures 85.5 square yards. a family rents 3/10 of that area to host a birthday party. how large is the area that the family rents?
0.30 square yards
8.55 square yards
10.00 square yards
25.65 square yards

To find the area the family rents, multiply the total area by the portion the family rents:

85.5 x 3/10

When multiplying with fractions, multiply the whole number by the numerator ( top number in the fraction) then divide that total by the denominator ( bottom number of a fraction)

85.5 x 3 = 256.5

256.5 / 10 = 25.65

The family rents 25.65 square yards.

25.65 square yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is 85.5 yd^2

He rents 3/10ths

Multiply the area  by the fractional part he rents

85.5 * 3/10

256.5/10

25.65 yd^2

the answer is 5/3x+7/5y+7
