How many times can 42 go into 278?

6.61 or 6 times

Step-by-step explanation:

278/42 = 6.61

42 goes into 278 6.61 times.

If you are estimating, 6 is correct.

If you are finding the exact answer, 6.61 is correct.

I hope this helps with your question.

i do not know this sorry : (

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
