To find the missing dimension (the height) you can use the formula A=bh and substitute and let you know. 1/10=3/8h. To find the missing factor (h) you will divide both sides by 3/8. 1/10 divided by 3/8 is the same as 1/10 x 8/3. The answer is 4/15 mile. You show this has h=4/15 mi.
4/15 Miles
The formula for the area of a parallelogram is A=b*h. We plug in the information that we know and solve for the missing height.
[tex] \frac{1}{10}= \frac{3}{8}*h [/tex]
Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 3/8 which is 8/3 so it is canceled on the right side.
[tex]\frac{8}{3}*\frac{1}{10}= h [/tex]
multiply the factions to get 8/30. 8 and 30 have common factors of 2 and can reduce to 4/15
