Its a lot easier to do 1.200 - .200. Than to do 1.248- .239. How I see it, estimating always gives you something to fall back on or to help see if your exact answer is accurate

Lara planted some seeds. For every 3 seeds Lara planted, only 2 seeds grew.
Tresset [83]

Given:

For every 3 seeds Lara planted, only 2 seeds grew.

Altogether, 12 seeds grew.

To find:

The number of total seeds planted by Lara.

Solution:

It is given that for every 3 seeds Lara planted, only 2 seeds grew. It means the ratio of total seeds planted to seeds grew is 3:2.

Altogether, 12 seeds grew.

Let x be the number of total seeds planted by Lara. Then,

x:12=3:2

\dfrac{x}{12}=\dfrac{3}{2}

x=\dfrac{3}{2}\times 12

x=18

Therefore, the total number of seeds planter by Lara is 18.

masya89 [10]

Answer:

16 ride tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

The original entry fee is $4 so you can subtract that from 12. Now you have $8. So you would double 8 since $0.50 is half of $1. 8x2 is 16.

Can u please help me with this math assignment

Hard to read sideways but what I got from that is that you have a right triangle and you are trying to explain the other angles? 
Both of the other two angles would be 45 because an angle is 180 total. If it is a right angle, that means that there is a 90 degree angle. 180-90=90. In a right angle, the other two angles are the same in degree. Therefor 90/2 is 45. 45 applies to both of the acute angles. I hope this helps! Good luck :)
