b is two fifths of c, so we make this a ratio with c = 1.
The ratio of b:c is 2/5 : 1
We also have 4a = 3c, rewrite this ratio so c is 1 by dividing both sides by 4,
so we get the ratio of a to c as 3/4 : 1
Now we get the a:b:c ratio of 3/4 : 2/5 : 1 now we can change the fractions to whole numbers, first by multiplying the 3 numbers by 4 to get get rid of the denominator of 4 in a:
3 : 8/5 : 4
Now multiply the 3 numbers by 5 to remove the denominator of 5 in b:
15 : 8 : 20
Now we can check using the equations:
b is 2/5 of c: 20 x 2/5 = 40/5 = 8 This is true.
4a = 3c: 4(15) = 3(20) = 60 = 60, this is also true.
The ratios is 15 : 8: 20
The probability would be 1/4. The probability of rolling an even number on each die is 1/2. Since there are two dice you would multiply the probability of each die together. 1/2*1/2=1/4. The reason you would this is because you could roll two odd numbers that equal an even number such as 3 and 5.
If you would like to calculate 6/(x+1)-5/2=6/(3x+3), you can do this using the following steps:
6/(x+1)-5/2=6/(3x+3)
6/(x+1)-5/2=6/(3(x+1)) /*(x+1)
6 - 5/2 * (x+1) = 6/3
6 - 2 = 5/2 * (x+1)
4 = 5/2 * (x+1) /*2/5
4 * 2/5 = x + 1
8/5 - 1 = x
x = 8/5 - 5/5 = 3/5
The correct result would be 3/5.
