A pipe is 2" outside diameter and it has 3/16" walls .What is the inside diameter,?
math - Ms. Sue, Sunday, June 24, 2012 at 3:50pm
2 - 2(3/16)
2 - 6/16 = 1 10/16 = 1 5/8
I multiplied 3/16 by 2.
2 * (3/16) = 6/16
I subtracted the walls from the outside diameter.
2 - 6/16 = 1 10/16
Then I simplified that fraction.
10/16 = 5/8
This site may help you visualize that.
