Answer:
a:b = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we need to operate with terms in order to arrive to a ratio a:b (or a/b).
We have:
2a−b/6 = b/3
Lets sum b/6 in both sides:
2a−b/6 + b/6 = b/3 + b/6
2a = b/3 + b/6
Now, we can multiply and divide b/3 by 2 to make a 6 appear on the denominator and sum it with b/6, this is, use common denominator:
2a = b/3*(2/2) + b/6
2a = 2b/6 + b/6
2a = 3b/6
2a = b/2, as 3/6 = 1/2
Now lets divide both sides by b to make an a/b appear:
2a/b = (b/2)/b
2a/b = 1/2
Finally, multiply both sides by (1/2) or divide by 2:
(2a/b)/2 = 2
a/b = 2
This is, a is twice as b. If b is 1 so a is 2; if b is 45 so a is 90, and so on.
i cant see the pic that good
Answer:
5/6 cups of sugar
Step-by-step explanation:
45 divided by 18 = 2.5
1/3 x 2.5 = 0.83
0.83 = 5/6 cups
