9514 1404 393

  A: 66/21

  E: 22/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The offered choices reduce to 3 1/7 or to 3. The best approximations of those given are the ones that reduce to 3 1/7.

  A: 66/21 = 22/7 = 3 1/7

  B: 60/20 = 3

  C: 21/7 = 3

  D: 45/15 = 3

  E: 22/7 = 3 1/7

Comment on pi approximations

The ratio 22/7 differs from π by about 0.04%. A better approximation is 355/113, which differs from π by about 0.000008%. The approximation 3.14 differs from π by about 0.05%.

fahrenheit

step-by-step explanation:

fahrenheit is more precise than celsius. the ambient temperature on most of the inhabited world ranges from -20 degrees fahrenheit to 110 degrees fahrenheit—a 130-degree range. on the celsius scale, that range is from -28.8 degrees to 43.3 degrees—a 72.1-degree range. this means that you can get a more exact measurement of the air temperature using fahrenheit because it uses almost twice the scale.
