1. divide each number by 6 and you get 4:3 answer c
2. 1x+4x=45 (the ratios give you how many of each you have)
5x=45 so x=9 that is the smallest number
3. percent means out of 100 so 490/100 4.9
4 percent means out of 100 so .5/100 5/1000 = .005
You have 2 apples, get 3 more, and then lose 2 of them.
So, you HAVE 2 apples, and if you get 3 more, you can add it to the 2.

In total at the moment, you have 5 apples. Now, you lose 2 more. We can subtract that from our total number of apples.

We now know that you are left with
3 apples.
What exactly do you mean? Is there answer's to the problem or more to the problem?
