Question

Nayeli lights a 4\,\text{m}^24m 2 4, start text, m, end text, squared space with 121212 candles. citlali lights a 10\,\text{m}^210m 2 10, start text, m, end text, squared space with 303030 of the same type of candles. whose space is lit brighter?

Answer 1

Using proportions, it is found that both spaces have the same brightness, as both have 3 candles per m².

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

For Nayeli and Citlali, the rate of candles per m² is given by:

• N = 12/4 = 3 candles per m².

• C = 30/10 = 3 candles per m².

Hence both spaces have the same brightness, as both have 3 candles per m².
