Find the greatest common factor (GCF) of 9 and 12 using factor trees. The GCF is 3

Divide each term (9 and 12) over 3
9/3 = 3
12/3 = 4

So 9/12 reduces to 3/4

In other words, 9/12 = 3/4

--------------------------------------

Now focusing on 3/4, we can multiply top and bottom by the same value. Let's say we multiply top and bottom by 5

3*5 = 15
4*5 = 20

So 3/4 = 15/20

--------------------------------------

So two ratios equivalent to 9/12 are 3/4 and 15/20. There are infinitely other ratios that are equivalent. 

In short, the answers are 3/4 and 15/20.

Calculate the number of acres required to produce 1,000 gallons of oil in one year from microalgae and soybeans. Which one (micr
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

microalgae required less space.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of oil to be produced = 1,000 gallons

Now,

We know

10,000 gallons of oil is extracted from the miroalgae per acre per year

and,

From soyabeans the oil extracted = 50 gallons per acre per year

therefore,

To produce 1,000 gallons number of acres required by microalgae

= [ Amount of oil to be produced ] ÷ [ oil extracted per acre from microalgae]

= 1,000 ÷ 10,000

= 0.1 acres

similarly

To produce 1,000 gallons number of acres required by soyabeans

= [ Amount of oil to be produced ] ÷ [ oil extracted per acre from soyabeans]

= 1,000 ÷ 50

= 20 acres

hence,

microalgae required less space.

A 6 ft tall tent standing next to a cardboard box casts a 15 ft shadow. if the cardboard box casts a shadow that is 6 ft long th
ohaa [14]
What we know is that a 6 foot tall tent casts a 15 foot shadow. Lets represent that given this way: 6 = 15
So, the unknown (y), or what we want to know, is how tall the cardboard box if it has a 6 foot long shadow (noticeably the same height as the tent):
y = 6

6 = 15
y = 6

(6 x 6) / 15 = y
36 / 15 = y
2.4 = y

The height of the cardboard box is 2.4 feet.

3.111 x 10^4 is 31110

2 x 10^3 is 2000

31110 + 2000 = 33100 or 3.31 x 10^4
