A movie collector has 105 movie posters and 90 band posters if she sells 21 movie posters then how many band posters should she

kotykmax [81]

Hi there! :)

Answer:

In order to maintain the same ratio, she should sell 18 band posters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial ratio:

Ratio is: 105 movie posters for 90 band posters = 105 : 90

She sells 21 movie posters, which means that we are left with 105 movies minus the 21 she sold.

105 - 21 = 84 → She now has 84 movie posters.

In order to answer your question, you'll need to use the cross product method:

105 movie posters → 90 band posters

84 movie posters → X

(90 × 84) ÷ 105 = X

7,560 ÷ 105 = X

72 = X ⇒ Number of band posters she should have left to maintain the same ratio.

She has 90 band posters :

90 - X = 72

Add "X" to each side of the equation → 72 + X = 72 + X

90 = 72 + X

Subtract 72 from each side of the equation → 90 - 72 = 18

18 = X

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Answer a, b and c. See image below

dlinn [17]

Answer:

a) 3/5 < 4/5

b) In general if two fractions have the same denominator, then whichever fraction has the numerator closer to its denominator will be the largest fraction.

c) $\frac{7}{10} > \frac{9}{15}$ or $\frac{7}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 3/5 < 4/5

Flip the sign and the placement of the fraction so 3/5 is less then 4/5.

b) In general if two fractions have the same denominator, then whichever fraction has the numerator closer to its denominator will be the largest fraction.

c) We need to change the denominators to a common denominator to compare the size of the two fractions:

$\frac{7}{10}$ × $\frac{3}{3}$ = $\frac{21}{30}$
