A very simple example problem to satisfy the required above is,
"John has 8 apples and 17 oranges. How much more oranges does John has than apple?"
To answer this item, one needs to subtract the number of apples from the number of oranges. This is as shown below,
D = 17 - 8 = 9
The concept of "how much more than" is linked to finding the difference between the numbers.
Answer:
The value of k is 5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of k is found by dividing the numerator of the original ratio, 5, by the sum of the numerator and denominator of the ratio
When finding a point, P, to partition a line segment AB into the ratio a/b, we find a ratio c = a / (a + b)
According to this formula we find the value of k.
k = a/(a+b)
where a = 5
b = 3
Now plug the values in the formula:
k = 5/(5+3)
k = 5/8 ....
The equivalent equation is d=17+12.5
it simplifies to d=29.5
