Answer:

Part 1) \frac{3}{1}  or 3:1

Part 2) \frac{5}{24}  or 5:24

Part 3) \frac{6}{5}  or 6:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we have

1.44 : 0.48

Rewrite

\frac{1.44}{0.48}

Multiply by 100 both numerator and denominator

\frac{144}{48}

Simplify

\frac{3}{1}  or 3:1

Part 2) we have

15/28:18/7

Multiply the term 18/7 by 4 both numerator and denominator

\frac{18*4}{7*4}=\frac{72}{28}

substitute

15/28:72/28

simplify

15:72

Rewrite

\frac{15}{72}

Simplify

\frac{5}{24}  or 5:24

Part 3) we have

2.4:6/5

Remember that

6/5=1.2

substitute

2.4:1.2

Simplify

Divide by 1.2 both numbers

1.2:1

Rewrite

\frac{1.2}{1}

Multiply by 10 both numerator and denominator

\frac{1.2*10}{1*10}=\frac{12}{10}

Simplify

\frac{6}{5}  or 6:5

The difference between two numbers is 2 and their product is 224. What are the numbers?
Sati [7]

Let x,y be the two numbers. We have two pieces of information:

x-y=2 (the difference between the two numbers is 2)

xy=224 (their product is 224)

From the first equation, we can deduce x=y+2

If we plug this expression in the second equation, we have

xy = (y+2)y = 224 \iff y^2+2y-224 =0

If you solve this equation with the usual quadratic formula you get the solutions

y=-16,\quad y=14

So, you have the following couple of solutions, recalling that x is 2 more than y:

\begin{cases} x = -14\\y=-16\end{cases},\quad\begin{cases} x = 16\\y=14\end{cases}
