Answer:
The answer is A
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
Let's r the ration
We suppose x ≠0
x=r*(x-2)==>r=x/(x-2)
x+3=r*x==> (x+3)/x=x/(x-2)==>(x+3)(x-2)=x²
==>x²+3x-2x-6=x² ==>x-6=0==>x=6
x-2=6-4=4
x=6
x+3=6+3=9
6=4*3/2
9=6*3/2
Ration 3/2
First term: 4
It takes 0.15625 minutes to paint 1 square feet
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, I can paint 96 sq ft in 15 minutes
To find: Time taken to paint 1 square feet
From given,
96 square feet is painted in 15 minutes
Let "x" be the time taken to paint 1 square feet
Then, we can say,
96 square feet = 15 minutes
1 square feet = x minutes
This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying

Thus it takes 0.15625 minutes to paint 1 square feet
Answer:
2/16
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
8/1=8
2/16=0.125 which is equal to 1/8
2/14=1/7
1/8=1/8 is 2/16 simplified so they are the same
14/2=7
