We are given that:
side length = 8 3/2 inches = 9.5 inches
the rule for the area is: A = s^2
Substitute with the side length in the rule given to get the area as follows:
Area = s^2 = (9.5)^2 = 90.25 inch^2
Answer:
27
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the ratio 3 : 9
and 9 : ?
note that 3 × 3 = 9, thus 9 × 3 = 27
3 : 9 = 9 : 27
60 / 5 = 12 miles per gallon
36 miles = 12 miles / gal * x gallons
divide by 12
36/12 =x gallons
3 =x
He needs 3 gallons
