You will have to write a proportion. Then use common denominators to write equivalent ratios. For example;

What is the weight of a 3 Ib human brain in ounces?
Use a proportion to convert 3 Ibs to oz.

16 ounces ? oz
————— = —————
1pound 3 pounds


Use common denominators to write equivalent ratios.


16•3 ?
----- = --- 3 is a common denominator.
1•3 3

48 ?
--- = ---
3 3

Equivalent rates with the same denominators have the same nominators.

?= 48

The weight is 48 ounces.

Lastima Nelson, Inc. is recruiting a new Chief Financial Officer (CFO). The recruiting budget is $44,000. Lastima has spent $10,
Musya8 [376]
The budget is $44000

Total spent so far is $10000 + $8500 = $18500

The amount left to spend = 44000 - 18500 = $25500

$25500 is the maximum 6% commission that Lastima Nelson Inc. can spend and stays within the budget

Let the maximum price of the home be x
This value of x will be the 100% before the 6% commission is calculated of it.

6% of x is 25500
1% of x is 25500 ÷ 6 = $4250
100% of x is 4250 × 100 = $425,000

So, the maximum value of the home is $425,000
