(ANSWER FOR FREE BRAINPOINTS!) (FIRST TO ANSWER GETS BAINLIEST) The local park has a rectangular swimming pool that measures 40

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

9 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both pools are similar, therefore the ratio of their length and width would be equal. That is:

Length of the current swimming pool : length of the new swimming pool = width of the current swimming pool : width of the new swimming pool

Thus, we can set up a proportion as shown below:

Let the width of the new swimming pool be x.

40 : 24 = 15 : x

$\frac{40}{24} = \frac{15}{x}$

Cross multiply

$40*x = 15*24$

$40x = 360$

Divide both sides by 40

$x = \frac{360}{40}$

$x = 9$

The width of the new swimming that is smaller would be 9 yards.

Alyssa said that 6/8 and 9/12 are not equivalent because there is no whole number you can multiply both part of 6/8 by to get 9/

BigorU [14]

Solution: Alyssa is incorrect.

In fact $\frac{6}{8}=\frac{9}{12}$ .

If we cross-multiply the above equation, we have:

$6 \times 12 = 9 \times 8$

$72 = 72$

Therefore, they are equal.

Also, if we reduce the given fractions, we have:

$\frac{6}{8} =\frac{3}{4}$

And

$\frac{9}{12}=\frac{3}{4}$

Since both the fractions reduced to $\frac{3}{4}$ , therefore fractions are equivalent.
