Although part of your question is missing, you might be referring to this full question: The two square pyramids are similar. The side length of the smaller pyramid is 3/4 the side length of the larger pyramid. Which fraction represents the ratio of the base area of the smaller pyramid to the base area of the larger pyramid?

The answer to the given question is 9/16. The fraction represents the ratio of the base area of the smaller pyramid to the base area of the larger pyramid is 9/16.

<h3>What is Area in Mathematics?</h3>

Area is defined as the total space taken up by a flat (2-D) surface or shape of an object. We measure area in square units (cm² or m²). Area is calculated by multiplying the length of a shape by its width.

The ratio of areas of 2 similar squares is the square of the ratios of their similar side lengths. Since the ratio of the smaller side length to the larger side length is 3/4, then the ratio of areas of two similar squares is:

(3/4) ² = 3²/4² = 9/16.

Ebi, Jose, Derell, and Asami measured their heights. Ebi's height was 2.5 cm greater than Jose's height. Jose's height was 3.1 c

irga5000 [103]

Start with assigning each person with a variable to represent their height

Ebi: e
Jose: j
Derell: d
Asami: a

Ebi'd height was 2.5 cm greater than Jose's height

j + 2.5 = e

Jose's height was 3.1 cm greater than Derell's

d + 3.1 = j

Derell's height is 0.4 cm less than Asami's height

a - 0.4 = d

Ebi is 162.5 cm tall

e = 162.5

So, plug in 162.5 into any of the above equations were there is a variable of e

j + 2.5 = e

j + 2.5 = 162.5

Subtract 2.5 from both sides of the equation

j = 160 cm

Jose's height is 160 cm

Now, plug in 160 into any of the above equations where there is a j

d + 3.1 = j

d + 3.1 = 160

Subtract 3.1 from both sides of the equation

d = 156.9 cm

Derell's height 156.9 cm

so, plug in 156.9 into any of the above equations where there is a d

a - 0.4 = d

a - 0.4 = 156.9

Add 0.4 on both sides of the equation

a = 157.3 cm

Asami's height is 157.3 cm

Explain how to use a horizontal number line<br> to order four fractions from least to greatest.

horsena [70]

Answer:

To order fractions from least to greatest, start by finding the lowest common denominator for all of the fractions. Next, convert each of the fractions by dividing the lowest common denominator by the denominator and then multiplying the top and bottom of the fraction by your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution for the above problem: We first find the least common denominator by finding the least common multiple for 4, 3, 2, 6, and 8. We find the LCM by the prime factorization method. Next, place the fractions in order from least to greatest.

45% of $360 is what as a quantity

Bess [88]

I'm assuming you want to know what 45% of 360 is.....

so you multiply 360 by 0.45 (since 45 is a percent, and to revert it back, you must move the decimal 2 times to the left) and you have your answer...
