If the proportion of iris to roses in Nikki's garden is 2: 5, it means that for 25 roses: (2/5) = (10/25). Therefore to maintain the proportion by adding 20 roses: (2/5) = (18/45). The number of irises after the addition of roses will be 10 + 18 = 28 irises.
Answer: $11.48
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, you have to multiply 3.25 by 2.55 because the grapes are 2.55 per pound. That makes 8.2875 for the first occasion. Next, you have to multiply 1.25 by 2.55 for the second occasion. That makes 3.1875. You then have to add 8.2875 and 3.1875. You get 11.47500, and that rounded to the nearest cent is $11.48.
1:2
Similar to the 1/2 fraction, 1:2 is a simplified ratio of a half.
Answer:
59,425 sq mi
Step-by-step explanation:
When you want to round to the units place, you look at the digit in the number that is in the place to the right of that: the tenths place. Here, that digit is 7, which is more than 4. Because that digit is more than 4, 1 is added to the units place and all the digits to the right of that are dropped.
This gives you 59,424 +1 = 59,425.
_____
If the tenths digit were 4 or less, no change would be made to values in the units place or to the left of that. The tenths digit and digits to the right would be dropped.
... 59,424.3 ⇒ 59,424 . . . . . for example
This is a proportion. First you take the numerator times the denominator that is already solved. In this case you will take 5 times 7 and get 35. You then take 35 divided by 4 and get your answer.
