Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Discussion

6 gift boxes are 12.36 inches high

32 gift box are x inches high

This is a proportion question. A proportion is made of 2 equal ratios. If you know 3 parts of the proportion, you can solve for the 4th,

6/32 = 12.36/x                Cross multiply

6x = 12.36 * 32               Combine the right.

6x = 395.52                    Divide by 6

6x/6 = 395.52/6

x = 65.92

Answer: 65.92

Note

Using a proportion saves you the trouble of finding 1 box and multiplying whatever number you get by 32

Long division by single digit <br>​
Sauron [17]

Answer:

Here's an example of long division:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's just do 48 divided by 6. First you have to multiply the 6 (the number we're dividing with) until it reaches the closest to 48 (6 x 8 = 48). Now you subtract 48 from 48, and you get zero. So 48 divided by 6 would be 0.

Hope this answers your question!

How do you do this? pls help !!!!!!!!
ValentinkaMS [17]

area is measured in "square" units. ... Area of a square = side times side. Since each side of a square is the same, it can simply be the length of one side squared. If a square has one side of 4 inches, the area would be 4 inches times 4 inches, or 16 square inches.

so you multiply the sides by each other.

right triangle ABC is shown below. A similar right triangle would be created by a run of 4 and rise of______
Svetllana [295]

The rise would have to be 12.

This is because in order to be "Similar" triangles the sides need to be proportionate.

(1/3 = 4/12)

The isosceles triangles below are similar.
ohaa [14]

Answer: a) 2:1. b) 3. c) Perimeter of ΔEFG=36 Perimeter of ΔHIJ=18. d) 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Find the ratio of GF and JI. 16:8. Simplify by dividing both by 8 to get 2:1.

b) Set up this equation: 6/16=x/8. Cross-multiply. 6*8=48. Divide by 16. 48/16=3.

c) First find the length of one half of GF by dividing 16 by 2. 16/2=8. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. 8^2+6^2=c^2. Square 8 and 6. 64+36=c^2. Add 64 and 36. 100=c^2. Find the square root of 100. c=10.

EF and EG both measure 10 since they are shown to be congruent. 10+10+16=36.

Next find the length of one half of JI by dividing 8 by 2. 8/2=4. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. Since we know x=3, it will be 4^2+3^2=c^2. Square both 4 and 3. 16+9=c^2. Add 16 and 9. 25=c^2. Find the square root of 25. c=5.

HJ and HI both measure 5 since they are congruent. 5+5+8=18.

d) Find the ratio of the perimeters of ΔEFG and ΔHIJ. 36:18. Simplify by dividing both by 6 to get 6:3. Simplify further by dividing both by 3 to get 2:1.
