$\underset{\leftarrow \qquad \text{\LARGE 16x}\qquad \to }{\stackrel{12x + 4}{G\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}} F\stackrel{16}{\rule[0.35em]{16em}{0.25pt}M}} \\\\\\ \stackrel{GF}{12x+4} ~~ + ~~ \stackrel{FM}{16} ~~ = ~~ \stackrel{GM }{16x}\qquad \implies 12x+20=16x \\\\\\ 20=4x\implies \cfrac{20}{4}=x\implies 5=x$

To determine how many times one variable to another variable, we get the ratio of both by dividing the values. For this case, we divide the weight of whale and the weight of the elephant.

when ashley buys 7 postage stamp booklets she gets 140 stamps.she get 60 stamps in three booklets. write an equation to find the

Andreyy89

We can put this information into two equations:

7 booklets = 140 stamps
3 booklets = 60 stamps

Let us then focus on one equation to find the relationship:

7 booklets = 140 stamps

If we put that into a fraction, we get $\frac{7}{140}$ or $\frac{1}{20}$ .

This means that for every booklet, Ashley gets 20 stamps; or rather, each booklet has 20 stamps.

We can then see that this relationship holds true for the second equation as well:

$\frac{3}{60}$ or $\frac{1}{20}$ .

To write a general equation for this relationship using p for the number of postage stamps, and b for the number of booklets:

p = 20b

Where b is equal to p.
