Unit rate = 3/8 : 1/6
We can also write this as:
3/8 / 1/6
Flip the 2nd fraction and multiply:
3/8 * 6/1
Multiply the numerators and denominators together:
18/8
Simplify by dividing the numerator and denominaotr by 2:
18 / 2 = 9
8 / 2 = 4
So we have:
9/4
What the. That ain’t a real question
Perimeter is adding the 3 sides together. Since both triangles have the same perimeter set both triangles to equal:
(x+3 + x+3 + x+3) = (x+3 + 2x-3 + x)
Simplify each side:
3x+9 = 4x
Subtract 3x from each side:
x=9
