Answer:
110/24 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
Given data
A basketball hoop is 10 1/24 feet high
Mark is 5 11/24 feet tall
Required
The distance from Mark's head to the top of the hoop
Step two:
the solution is the difference between the two heights
=10 1/24 - 5 11/24
let us convert the mixed fraction to simple fraction
=241/24- 131/24
LCM = 24
= 241-131/24
=110/24 feet
