Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio is 4x:4x:7x, if we add all those numbers up we get 15. Then we do 75/15 to get what x equals. So we get 5. So x equals 5. Following the rules of multiplication, you do 4(5):4(5):7(5), and simplifying that further, you get 20:20:35. If we add all those values up, we should get 75, and we do!

If you're wondering why I did 4x:4x:7x instead of 4:4:7, it's because a ratio is just a...well ratio? It's easier to visualize if you put a variable because the variable could be anything, and you would have to multiply all the given values to get the same proportions. In summery, I did it so it was easier to visualize

Solve by grouping if you are able to find distinct factors that multiply to the last term and add to the middle term...this method is rather easy with easy to manage numbers. Complete the square if you cannot find distinct factors that multiply to the last term and add to the middle term. Completing the square helps when the equation is in the form of a parabola.
