To determine what fraction of the team is 69 1/2 inches tall, we first convert 69 1/2 inches into an improper fraction.
69 1/2 inches can be expressed as:
69 1/2 = 69 + 1/2 = (138/2) + (1/2) = 139/2 inches.
Now we should evaluate the given responses to see which could be representative of that height as a fraction.
The responses given are:
- 1/3
- 1 3 (potentially intended to be interpreted as 1 and 3)
- 1/4
- 1 4 (potentially intended to be interpreted as 1 and 4)
- 1/5
- 1 5 (potentially intended to be interpreted as 1 and 5)
- 3/9
- 3 9 (potentially intended to be interpreted as 3 and 9)
- 3 1/2 (which means 3.5 or 7/2)
However, without additional context regarding the height distribution of the team (e.g., total number of team members or additional heights), we cannot determine what fraction of the team is exactly the height of 69 1/2 inches.
To make this assessment or comparison, please provide the total members of the team or additional details.
