Answer:
Option a is correct
[tex]4\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
As per the statement:
A rattlesnake at a zoo is 5 1/2=[tex]\frac{11}{2}[/tex] feet long.
We have to find the length of the corn snake.
[tex]\text{Length of the corn snake} = \frac{3}{4} \times \text{Length of rattlesnake}[/tex]
Substitute the given value we have;
[tex]\text{Length of the corn snake} = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{11}{2}[/tex]
⇒[tex]\text{Length of the corn snake} = \frac{33}{8}[/tex]
or
[tex]\text{Length of the corn snake} = 4\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
Therefore, the length of the corn snake is, [tex]4\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
