1/8+ 1/4(2/8)+ 3/8+ 1/2(4/8)+ 5/8+ 3/4(6/8)+ 7/8= 28/8 = 3 1/2
We are given ratio nickel to zinc to copper = 2:7:9.
From this ratio we can see that <em>ratio of nickel to zinc is 2:7</em>.
Let us assume number of pounds of nickel have to be used to create alloy that contains 4.9 lb of zinc is x pounds.
So, we can setup a proportion as :
x : 4.9 = 2:7
Or

On cross multiplication, we get
7x= 4.9× 2
7x = 9.8
Dividing both sides by 7, we get
x = 1.4.
<h3>Therefore, 1.4 pounds of nickel have to be used to create alloy that contains 4.9 lb of zinc.</h3><h3 />
5n = 3(n + 2) + 10
5n = 3n + 16
12n = 16
n = 8
8 is smaller integer and 10 is the larger.
