In order to divide $306 into the ratio of 9 to 5 to 3, first you have to make each section of the ratio represented by a variable, and put it into an equation.
9x + 5x + 3x = 306
Our next step is to simplify the left side of the equation by combining all of the like terms, the ones that contain variables.
17x = 306
Finally, to solve this equation, you have to divide both sides by 17 to isolate the variable x on the left side of the equation.
x = 18
However, this is not our answer as it isn't in a ratio format and doesn't really make sense. To find our ratio, we have to multiply each of our initial numbers (9, 5, and 3) by our variable, x.
9 * 18 = 162
5 * 18 = 90
3 * 18 = 54
You can verify that these numbers are correct because if you add them together you get 306.
Your final ratio is 162:90:54.
Hope this helps! :)

<u>B. The probability that a Baby Boomer is single, never married is 0.03 or 3%.</u>
<u>C. The probability that one person selected randomly (female or male) is married is 0.513 or 51.3% </u>
<u>D. The probability that someone who is living with a partner, but not married is a Generation X is 0.025 or 2.5%.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the information provided on the analysis table, we can answer the questions:
A. The probability that a Millennial is married is 0.089 or 8.9%.
B. The probability that a Baby Boomer is single, never married is 0.03 or 3%.
C. The probability that one person selected randomly (female or male) is married is 0.513 or 51.3% (Millennial 0.089 + Generation X 0.223 + Baby boomer 0.201)
D. The probability that someone who is living with a partner, but not married is a Generation X is 0.025 or 2.5%.
Answer:
x < 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4x - 7 < 5
Add 7 to both sides;
4x < 12
Divide both sides by 4;
x < 3
