600000 is 1/10 of "x", that means x = 10/10 or a whole, what is "x"?
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the smaller of the two factors of 896 that have the ratio 8:7.
<h3>Setup</h3>
Let x represent the smaller of the two factors (the one we want to find). Then the larger factor is (8/7)x, and their product is ...
x(8/7)x = 896
(8/7)x² = 896
<h3>Solution</h3>
Multiplying by the inverse of the coefficient of x², we have ...
x² = (7/8)(896) = 784
x = √784 = 28 . . . . . . . . take square root
The smaller of the two numbers is 28.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The larger is (8/7)(28) = 32.
The maximum number of fish is going to be p(9) = 200
96 divided by 6 is 16
96 divided by 8 is 12
96 divided by 12 is 8
96 divided by 16 is 6
96 divided by 32 is 3
