ANSWER:

$3 : $8

The ratio of Beth's savings to Carmen's savings is $3 : $8.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

The problem is asking for the ratio of Beth's savings to Carmen's savings as displayed below.

Beth's savings : Carmen's savings

We will now establish the valuea given in the problem relevant to the above ratio and substitute it into the ratio.

Beth's savings = $30

Carmen's savings = $80

THEREFORE:

Beth's savings : Carmen's savings

$30 : $80

From this, we will ensure that the ratio is simplified fully by obtaining the highest common factor ( HCF ) of both the numbers in the ratio and dividing them by their HCF.

HCF = 10

THEREFORE:

$30 : $80

$30 ÷ 10 : $80 ÷ 10

$3 : $8

5). The pond is 180ft wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

5). We know this because...

90 120

----- = -------

135 x

90x = 120(135)

Which simplifies down to:

90x = 16200

x = 180

Answer:

6). The height of the clock tower is 13ft 9in.

Carla has 1 gallon of paint. She is going to pour it into a paint tray that measures 10 inches wide, 10 inches long, and 7 cm de

solniwko [45]

Answer:

To determine the correct statement in the choices presented, we first have to solve the area of the tray. We assume it to be in a rectangular form so the area is:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 10 in x 10 in x 7/2.54 in = 275.59 in³ for the paint tray

1 gallon paint = 231 in³ paint

Therefore, the correct answer is the first option. The paint will not fill the tray by 44.59 in³
