Answer:

9    3/4  inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are finding how much taller Sara is, we need to subtract

6 ft 3 3/4 - 5 ft  6in

I like to line up vertically

  6 ft 3 3/4

- 5 ft  6in

----------------

We  need to borrow 1 ft and make it 12 inches


  5 ft 3+12  3/4

- 5 ft  6in

----------------

   5 ft 15  3/4

- 5 ft  6in

----------------  

  0     9    3/4  inches

The ratio of oranges to apples in Helen's basket is 4:3. The basket has 12 apples in it. How many oranges are in the basket?
frez [133]

Answer:

16 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of oranges to apples is 4:3 which means that for every four oranges, there are 3 apples.

Since there are 12 apples in the basket, to find the number of oranges, set up a ratio.

4/3 = x/12 (x represents the number of oranges)

Cross multiply.

48 = 3x

Divide by 3.

x = 16

There are 16 oranges in the basket.

Hope that helps.
