Answer: Yes</h3>
========================================================
Explanation
The ratio 8:10 simplifies to 4:5 when you divide both parts by 2.
The ratio 16:20 simplifies to 4:5 when you divide both parts by 4
Therefore the two ratios 8:10 and 16:20 are both equal 4:5, so they are equal to one another.
------------
Put another way,
(8 large)/(10 small) = (16 large)/(20 small)
8/10 = 16/20
8*20 = 10*16 ... cross multiply
160 = 160
We get a true equation, so the first equation is true as well.
This shows the ratios are equivalent.
-------------
Or you could have...
(8 large)/(16 large) = (10 small)/(20 small)
8/16 = 10/20
8*20 = 16*10
160 = 160
We get the same conclusion as before.

Answer:
580ml
Step-by-step explanation:
Let The quantity of water drank by Carol be x
Now given that Keela drank twice as much water as Carol which means the quantity of water drank by Keela is 2x
Also given that Xavier drank 100 mL more water than Keela which means the quantity of water drank by Xavier is 2x+100
Total water consumed by all the three is 3 litres=3000 ml
Total water drank = Water drank by Keela + Water drank by Xavier +Water drank by carol
3000=x+2x+2x+100
5x=2900
x=580ml
Carol drank 580ml of water.
Answer:
208cats
Step-by-step explanation:
⅝=tongue
³/16=straw=39cats
⅝+³/16=13/16
meaning total number of cats is 16/16
If ³/16=39cats
16/16=?
39×16/3
=208cats
