Ok, to solve this first you have to set up your proportion:
9/150=x/230
/ is a fraction
x= the number of vials it will take to treat 230 patients
in order to solve this, you have to cross multiply:
9 x 230= 2070
150 · x= 150x
so you get 150x=2070
then divide 2070 by 150
2070/150= 13.8
so it would take 13.8 vials of medicine to treat 230 patients
12 groups in a 1:1 ratio of boys:girls. there are only 12 girls so one in each group + 1 boy per group gives you 12 groups. with a remainder of 6 boys
Answer:
ok so we can divide 15 by 5 to get 3
so we know the building is 3 times bigger
so we multiply 3 by 3 to get 9
so the answer is D
