3 scoops and a quarter? not really sure if you were saying one and a half cups or if the Baker was using ONE half cup scoop
1 1/2+1 1/2+1 1/2+ 1/4 =4.75
Answer:
If there is 1 at the top, then you have 1, then 2, then 3, etc.
total number of oranges equals:
1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 16 + 17 + 18 <-- stop at 18 because this is the number of oranges at the base
You can use the formula:
sum of first n numbers = n*(n + 1)/2
-->
18*19/2 = 9*19 = 171
or you can figure it out (basically derive the above formula):
you have:
1 + 18 = 19
2 + 17 = 19
3 + 16 = 19
...
How many pairs do you have? Well, it's just the number of numbers: 1-18 = 18 numbers (divide by 2) = 9 pairs)
9 pairs of 19 = 9 * 19 = 171
Hope this helps!

Answer:
2 : 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
AC : DF = 8 : 4 = 2 : 1
