Find the reciprocal of the second fraction (flip numerator and denominator's spots) and multiply the two fractions.
W=3L
W+W+L+L=72
Replace W with 3L: 3L+3L+L+L=72
8L=72
L=9
W=27
Answer:
3 3/18
Step-by-step explanation:
5 3/6-2 1/3
We first need to turn our mixed numbers into fractions by multiplying the while number by the denominator, then adding the numerator. When we do this, 5 3/6 turns into 33/6 and 2 1/3 turns into 7/3. Now we have this:
33/6-7/3
Now we need to find the Least common multiple of the denominators in order to find our common denominator, which in this case is 6. 33/6 already has a denominator of 6, so we do not need to do anything to it. To give a denominator of 6 to 7/3, however, we must multiply by 2, giving us this:
33/6-14/6
Now we can subtract the numerators.
19/6
To turn this back into a mixed number, we divide 19 by 6, which gives us 3 with a remainder of 1. Therefore, our answer is 3 1/6. This is an equivalent fraction to the fourth answer, 3 3/18.

Assuming that Jupiter and Earth are similar
linear sale factor=(diameter of Jupiter) /(diameter of earth)=11
thus:
diameter of earth=(diameter of Jupiter)/(linear scale factor)
=88000/11
=8000 miles
The diameter of earth is 8000 miles
