Answer:
a) 90 stamps
b) 108 stamps
c) 333 stamps
Step-by-step explanation:
Whenever you have ratios, just treat them like you would a fraction! For example, a ratio of 1:2 can also look like 1/2!
In this context, you have a ratio of 1:1.5 that represents the ratio of Canadian stamps to stamps from the rest of the world. You can set up two fractions and set them equal to each other in order to solve for the unknown number of Canadian stamps. 1/1.5 is representative of Canada/rest of world. So is x/135, because you are solving for the actual number of Canadian stamps and you already know how many stamps you have from the rest of the world. Set 1/1.5 equal to x/135, and solve for x by cross multiplying. You'll end up with 90.
Solve using the same method for the US! This will look like 1.2/1.5 = x/135. Solve for x, and get 108!
Now, simply add all your stamps together: 90 + 108 + 135. This gets you a total of 333 stamps!
Answer: y+44+68=180
Step-by-step explanation: y+44 and 68 are complementary angles so they add to equal 180
12 ounces will be left in the bottle
Turn the 1/4 into a decimal which is 0.25 and times that by 20 and you’ll get 5, 5 is the amount of ounces you poured for your friend. Subtract 20 ounces by 5 ounces and you’ll get 15 ounces, then subtract 15 by 3 which is the amount of juice you poured for yourself and you’ll be left with 12 ounces in the bottle.
