Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The model is a tile with length 1/4 in. and width 1/6 in while the actual tile has length 1/6 ft. and width 1/9 ft.
Firstly we have to convert the model length and width from inches to feet.
1 feet = 12 inches
model length = 1/4 in. = 1/4 in * (1/12) ft./in = 1/48 ft.
model width = 1/6 in. = 1/6 in * (1/12) ft./in = 1/72 ft.
Therefore:
Ratio of model length to actual length of tile = (1/48 ft.) / (1/6 ft.) = 1 / 8
Ratio of model length to actual length of tile = (1/72 ft.) / (1/9 ft.) = 1 / 8
Area of model tile = length * width = 1/48 ft. * 1/72 ft. = 1/3456 ft²
Area of actual tile = length * width = 1/6 ft. * 1/9 ft. = 1/54 ft²
Ratio of model area to actual area of tile = (1/3456 ft²) / (1/54 ft²) = 1 / 64
11 x 15 = $165
He will have $165 after 15 weeks.
X=1, and 3/8 it is a mixed number.
