The ratio of the area of the smaller rectangle to the area of the larger rectangle is 1:16

Area of a rectangle

The formula for calculating the area of a rectangle is expressed as:

A = length * width

For the large triangle

Area = 16 * 12

Area of large triangle = 192 square units

For the smaller rectangle

Area = 4 * 3

Area. of small rectangle = 12 square units

Ratio = 12/192 = 1:16

Hence the ratio of the area of the smaller rectangle to the area of the larger rectangle is 1:16

Answer:

20 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since angle B and angle A are both inscribed angles to the same arc, they must be equal. Therefore:

7x-8=5x

Subtract 5x from both sides:

2x-8=0

Add 8 to both sides:

2x=8

Divide both sides by 2:

x=4

Now, you can plug this back into the equation for angle B:

B=7(4)-8

B=28-8

B=20

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf 1 \ pound \ of \ dough = 1\frac{1}{5} \ cup \ of \ flour}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle \underline{Given \ that:}\\\\\frac{5}{8} \ pound \ of \ dough = \frac{3}{4} \ cup\ of \ flour\\\\Multiply \ 8 \ to \ both \ sides\\\\5 \ pounds \ of \ dough = \frac{3}{4} \times 8 \ cup \ of \ flour\\\\5 \ pounds \ of \ dough = 3 \times 2 \ cup \ of \ flour\\\\5 \ pounds \ of \ dough = 6 \ cups \ of \ flour\\\\Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 5\\\\1 \ pound \ of \ dough = \frac{6}{5} \ cup \ of \ flour\\\\\boxed{1 \ pound \ of \ dough = 1\frac{1}{5} \ cup \ of \ flour}\\\\$

By copying and completing the working below, work out 3 + 1 16 Give your answer as a fraction in its simplest form.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Assuming the question is: 3 + 1 16 [I see no "working below."

Step-by-step explanation:

3 + 1 16

48/16 + (16/16 + 1/16) [Make all numbers into fractions using 16 as the denominator. E.g. 48/16 = 3.

Add: 48/16 + (16/16 + 1/16)

(48+16+1)/16

=63/16

[Also equal to 3 15/16]
