1/4th of Mai’s height is equal to 2/5th of Jon’s height
Let 'x' represent Mai's height and 'y' represent Jon's height.
Therefore, 1/4th of "x" should be equal to 2/5th of "y". This gives us the following equation :
(1/4)x = (2/5)y
multiply both sides by 4/y
x/y = 4*(2/5)
x/y = 8/5
x:y = 8:5
The ratio of Mai's s height to Jon's height is 8 to 5
True because if you are multiplying any number by a fraction smaller than 1, you are practically dividing it so the number become smaller. For example, multiplying by 1/2 is findind the half so its gonna get smaller.
I think 80%
I also got stuck on it and searched it up I think its 80% but if I'm wrong I'm sorry
By the formula for the area of an equilateral triangle (s^2sqrt(3)/4), the area is sqrt(3)/4.
