Hello
To find an equal ratio, you can either multiply or divide each term in the ratio by the same number (but not zero). For example, if we divide both terms in the ratio 3:6 by the number three, then we get the equal ratio, 1:2.
Answer:
sorry i do not know
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
30.8 miles per gallon
Explanation:
1.25 = 38.5
Divide both sides by 1.25
1 = 30.8
Answer:
u = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply divide both sides by -8:
u = (-16/3)/-8
If you don't have a calc, use KCF:
u = (-16/3)(-1/8)
u = 16/24
u = 2/3
To solve this, it is easiest to set up a proportion, letting x represent the number that we don't know.
2/10 = x/5
Now, we can use cross products to simplify this proportion. Cross products sets the products of the numerator and denominator of separate fractions equal to one another. It results in the equation:
(5)(2) = (10)(x)
Let's multiply out these numbers to further simplify the equation.
10 = 10x
Finally, we have to divide both sides by 10, to get our variable x alone
x = 1
Therefore, 2 tenths is equal to 1 fifth.
