STEP 1

Assumptions1. The body length of the insect is one sixteenth of an inch.
. The planet orbits its sun once every464 and $\frac{39}{10,000}$ days.
3. We need to convert these fractions to decimal form.

STEP 2

To convert a fraction to a decimal, we divide the numerator by the denominator.
For the insect's body length, we have$$\frac{1}{16}$$

STEP 3

Perform the division to convert the fraction to a decimal.
$$\frac{1}{16} =0.0625$$

STEP 4

So, the body length of the insect is0.062 inches.
For the planet's orbit duration, we have$$464 + \frac{39}{10,000}$$

STEP 5

First, convert the fraction $\frac{39}{10,000}$ to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator.
$$\frac{39}{10,000} =0.0039$$

Now, add this decimal to464 to get the total number of days.
$$464 +0.0039 =464.0039$$So, the planet orbits its sun once every464.0039 days.
