Answer:
3.14
Step-by-step explanation:
if you want the exact answer you can multiply 7 by the value of
, that is = 3.14
X = 1st number
y = 2nd number
x + y = 200
x : y = 4 : 6
ok! let's substitute numbers!
4 * 10 : 6 * 10
40 : 60
40 + 60 = 200
100 ≠ 200
Too small!
That is exactly two times smaller than 200 so let's try 2 times greater than multiplying by 10
4 * 20 : 6 * 20
80 : 120
80 + 120 = 200
200 = 200
Now it says to find the larger number. Which is y.
x :y = 4 : 6 = 80 : 120
so, y is 120
y = 120
Answer : y = 120. The larger number is 120.
You are correct! 25% is equal to 1/4 or 0.25, not 2 1/2 and/or 2.5
How about "miles per hour?" I drive "45 miles per hour" on my way into town.
That's a unit rate.
Did you know that 2 pints = 1 quart? You could write this rate / ratio as
2 pints
---------
1 qt
or as
(1/2 qt)
----------- this is a measure of one quantity per unit of another quantity.
1 pint
