Answer=15:39
Step1(find the number of right handed batters)
Left-handed batters=45
5 45
__=___
8 x
Cross multiply
5x=360
divide both sides by 5
x=72
Right-handed batters=72
Step 2 (find the number of total batters)
total batters=45+72=117
Step3 (find the ratio of left handed batters to total batters)
Left-handed batters to total batters= 45/117
45/117 can be shortened to 15/39
Answer=15:39
The answer would be 7+5/6b
We know that we are solving for y.
This is a step by step procedure to get the value of y.
First: Move all terms to the left side and set equal to
zero.
Second: Then set each factor equal to zero.
The application is:
Given: py+7=6y+q
-6y -7 -6y -7 = 0
(p-6)y = q-7
divide both sides by p-6
y=(q-7)/(p-6)
Answer is y = (q – 7) / (p – 6)
