? ft

Answer 1

anyone please help me

Answer 2

let your unknown dimension be x
clearly from the figure we can see
\[x=B-A\]
Let's simplify your A and B first,
\[A=18\frac{ 1 }{3 } ft\]
I hope you know how to convert mixed fraction into improper fractions,
\[A=\frac{ 55 }{ 3 }ft\]
similarly
\[B=\frac{ 75 }{ 8 }ft\]
Plug in the values of A and B, take LCM and simplify for x
