Answer: 1:2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in mathematics , the ratio of m to n is written as \dfrac{m}{n} or m:n [In simplified terms]

Similarly, for the given question , the ratio of 3 sailboats to 6 fan boats will be written as :

\dfrac{3}{6}

Divide both numerator and denominator by 3 [∵ both 3 and 6 are multiple of 3], we get

=\dfrac{1}{2}

Hence, the  ratio of 3 sailboats to 6 fan boats will be 1:2.

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

23.3

(or 4\sqrt{34} (let me know if you wanted this one and is you want it explained) lol)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of the fence, use the Pythagorean theorem because, if you cut a rectangle diagonally, you will create two right triangles, and this formula only works with right triangles:

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

Insert values:

12^{2} +20^{2} =c^{2}

Solve for c:

Evaluate exponents

144+400=c^2

Simplify addition

544=c^2

Find the square root of both

\sqrt{544} =\sqrt{c^2}\\\\\sqrt{544} =c\\\\23.324=c\\\\c=23.3

The fence needs to be approximately 23.3 m.
