Answer:
1.81 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The circumference of the largest orange in a bag is [tex]9\dfrac{5}{8}\ \text{inches}[/tex] and that of smallest orange is [tex]7\dfrac{13}{16}\ \text{inches}[/tex].
Difference = largest orange - smallest orange
= [tex]9\dfrac{5}{8}-7\dfrac{13}{16}\\\\=\dfrac{77}{8}-\dfrac{125}{16}\\\\=\dfrac{29}{16}\\\\=1.81\ \text{inches}[/tex]
So, difference of the circumferences of the smallest orange and the largest orange is 1.81 inches
