Please help me to solve this answer it is due tomorrow and this one question is hard for me.

11/16th of cheese

Step-by-step explanation:

Veronica had 1 1/4th lbs of cheese already but the container weighted 1/16 lbs. 4/16ths are equal to 1/4th. Veronica only had 1 3/16ths worth of cheese so knowing that she had 8/16ths left add 3/16ths and you get 11/16ths.

Before I start, I apologise if the formatting is a bit unclear :/. Using the formula for the distance between two points (which is derived from the Pythagorean theorem) we get this:

d = √([8-1]²+[6-1]²) which simplifies to
d = √(49 + 25) = √74

If you put √74 in to a calculator, you can find that the distance is closest to 8.6 units.
