Answer:
PR = 24.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
, that is
= 
( cross- multiply )
18PR = 28 × 15.75 = 441 ( divide both sides by 18 )
PR = 24. 5
Answer:
10 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert mixed numbers into improper fractions (whole number × denominator + numerator)
25 2/3 and 15 1/3
25 × 3 + 2 = 75 + 2 = 77
Put the number over the same denominator
77/3
15 × 3 + 1 = 45 + 1 = 46
Put the number over the same denominator
46/3
77/3 - 46/3
They have common denominators so we can simply subtract the numerator values
77 - 46/3
31/3
To convert it back to a whole number, find how many times 3 fits into 31 evenly
It fits 10 times evenly with 1 remainding which looks like:
10 1/3
The answer of how many quarts are in 8 1/4 gallons is 33 qt
The answer to the question is 2 because 2 + 6= 8
