Answer:

The greatest number is 32 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

The ratio of three numbers is 4 : 3 : 1.

The sum of the numbers is 64.

Let us assume that the x be the scalar multiple of the numbers .

First number = 4x

Second number = 3x

Third number = x

Than the equation becomes

4x + 3x + x =  64

8x = 64

x = \frac{64}{8}

x = 8

Thus

First number = 4x

                     = 4 × 8

                     = 32

Second numbers = 3x

                             = 3 × 8

                             = 24

Third number = x

                       = 8

Therefore the greatest number is 32 .

Total value of ratio = 4+3+1 = 8

value of 1 unit = 64/8 = 8

numbers are 4(8), 3(8), 1(8) = 32, 24, 8

so, the greatest number is 32

patriot [66]

Answer:

  • x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Direct variation equation:</u>

  • y = kx, where k is constant of variation

<u>Given:</u>

  • 96 = 8k
  • k = 96/8
  • k = 12

<u>The equation is:</u>

  • y = 12x

<u>Find the value of x when y = 168:</u>

  • 168 = 12x
  • x = 168/12
  • x = 14
