For example: if the word problem were simply "4 divided by 2", the fraction would be a 4 with a line underneath and the 2 underneath that.
I hope I made this possible to understand... let me know if you were referring to something else!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
quarts
12 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Amount of water leaked in 4 days = 3 quarts
To find:
Number of quarts leaked in 1 week?
Number of days taken for the leakage of 9 quarts of water?
Solution:
We can simply use unitary method or the ratio to find the answers of the questions asked in the statement.
As per question statement:
Amount of water leaked in 4 days = 3 quarts
Dividing by 4 on both sides:
Amount of water leaked in 1 day =
quarts
Multiplying by 7 on both sides:
Amount of water leaked in 7 days =
quarts
Number of days taken for the leakage of 3 quarts = 4 days
Multiplying by 3 on both sides:
Number of days taken for the leakage of 3
3 = 9 quarts = 4
3 = <em>12 days</em>
Answer: x = 7
`Step-by-step explanation:
Because the figure shows two triangles that are similar. we can write and solve an equation of ratios:
9 cm 72 cm
----------- = -----------
3x - 20 56 cm
Cross-multiplying, we get (3x - 20)(72 cm) = (9 cm)(56 cm) = 504 cm²
Dividing both sides by 72 cm, we get:
3x - 20 = (504 cm²) / (72 cm) = 7
Then 3x - 20 = 7, and 3x = 27. Then x must be 9.
