16 ÷ 12 = 1.33333.....
The answer lies in between the number 1 and 2.
Answer:
r = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that c varies directly as (r + 1) then the equation relating them is
c = k(r + 1) ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition c = 8 when r = 3, then
8 = k(3 + 1) = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )
2 = k
c = 2(r + 1) ← equation of variation
When c = 20, then
20 = 2(r + 1) ← divide both sides by 2
10 = r + 1 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
9 = r
The fraction between 1/2 and 2/2 is 1/4
Multiply 4 by its reciprocal: 1/8x1/4= 1/32.
