A)
3 : 1
24 : ?
Add the ratio together (3+1=4), Divide the one you know (24 Black bears) by the ratio (24/4=8), the answer equals the amount of the missing value. (?=8)
B)
3 : 1
? : 12
12*3=36 ?=36
The black bear is just 3* bigger than the grizzly bear.
C)
Total =20
Add the ratio together (3+1=4), divide by the total (20/4=5), and then just multiple the ratios by 5.
3 : 1
15 : 5
I hope this helps :)
a - length of side of a square
t - length of side of a triangle
The perimeter of a square: 
The perimeter of a triangle: 
We have the area of a triangle: 
The formula of an area of an equilateral trinagle: 
Substitute:
<em>multiply both sides by 4</em>
<em>divide both sides by 
</em>
The perimeter of a triangle: 
Substitute to the formula of a perimeter of a square:
<em>divide both sides by 4</em>
The formula of a diagonal of a square: 
Substitute:
Cost of the spa treatment = $42
Percentage of sales tax = 6%
Percentage of tips = 20%
Normally the tips amount is calculated before adding sales tax.
Then
Amount of tips given = (20/100) * 42
= (1/5) * 42
= 8.40 dollars
Amount of sales tax taken = (6/100) * 42
= 252/100
= 2.52 dollars
Then
The total amount spent for spa treatment = (42 + 8.40 + 2.52) dollars
= 52.92 dollars
So we can see that $52.92 has been spent in total for spa treatment and this amount includes a sales tax of $2.52 and a tip of $8.40.
