To get the value of DK we use proportionality:
AK/EK=BK/KD
thus plugging the values we get:
14/17=7/KD
getting the reciprocal of getting both sides we have:
17/14=KD/7
thus
KD=17/14×7
KD=8.5
thus
Answer:
The answer SHOULD be 7/8=224/x;256 pounds.
You may have made a mistake in inputting it here on Brainly. So look for the one that matches that.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is what we know:
Jasper = 224 pounds
Balin = x
Jasper = 7/8 of x
Now we make an equation for that:

To match the selections we will isolate 7/8 on one side of the equation:

Using ratio and proportion we can solve for what x is. Multiply 224 by 8 and divide it by 7. Or you can do it this way too:




So x = 256 pounds
You need to divide the amount from the quantity
So 5.92 divide by 166= $0.37 per pound.
4+(-6)/(-2) = 7
5/2+(-3/2)=1
-3/4-5/6 = 1.58
5/8(-3/5) = -3/8
