Answer:
- 8 3/4
- 2, 3
- 4 1/2, 11 1/4
- 9 3/4, 16 1/4
- Y/B = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a)</h3>
The first line is simply the sum of the two given numbers.
3 1/2 +5 1/4 = (3+5) +(2/4+1/4) = 8 3/4
__
To find values on the remaining lines, it is convenient to find the ratios of the numbers involved. The ratio of yellow to blue is ...
Y/B = (3 1/2)/(5 1/4) = (7/2)/(21/4) = (7/2)(4/21) = 2/3
Then ...
Y : B : total = 2 : 3 : 5
This tells you the numbers on the second line are ...
Y = 2; B = 3
__
The value for B on the third line is the basic ratio number multiplied by (6 3/4)/3 = 2 1/4. Then the other two numbers are ...
Y = 2(2 1/4) = 4 1/2
total = 5(2 1/4) = 11 1/4
__
The value for Y on the fourth line is the basic ratio number multiplied by (6 1/2)/2 = 3 1/4. Then the other two numbers are ...
B = 3(3 1/4) = 9 3/4
total = 5(3 1/4) = 16 1/4
_____
<h3>b)</h3>
The equation is the one we used to find the values on the second line:
Y/B = 2/3
so, we have two 54x18 rectangles, so their perimeter is simply all those units added together, 54+54+54+54+18+18+18+18 = 288.
we know the circle's diameter is 1.5 times the width, well, the width is 18, so the diameter of the circle must be 1.5*18 = 27.
