Answer:

39 and 65

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the two numbers is 3 : 5

sum the parts of the ratio, 3 + 5 = 8 parts

divide the sum by 8 to find the value of one part of the ratio

104 ÷ 8 = 13 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

3 parts = 3 × 13 = 39

5 parts = 5 × 13 = 65

the two numbers are 39 and 65

(ANSWER FOR FREE BRAINPOINTS!) (FIRST TO ANSWER GETS BAINLIEST) The local park has a rectangular swimming pool that measures 40

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

9 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both pools are similar, therefore the ratio of their length and width would be equal. That is:

Length of the current swimming pool : length of the new swimming pool = width of the current swimming pool : width of the new swimming pool

Thus, we can set up a proportion as shown below:

Let the width of the new swimming pool be x.

40 : 24 = 15 : x

$\frac{40}{24} = \frac{15}{x}$

Cross multiply

$40*x = 15*24$

$40x = 360$

Divide both sides by 40

$x = \frac{360}{40}$

$x = 9$

The width of the new swimming that is smaller would be 9 yards.
