To answer this question you will use ratios. The information given gives us a part to part ratio of 1 part vinegar for every 3 parts oil.
Because the total amount of furniture polish is 30 ounces, we will need to write one part vinegar to three parts oil as a part to part to whole ratio.
Use this information then and create an equivalent ratio with a total of 30 ounces. See below.
1 vinegar (x7.5) = 7.5 ounces
3 oil. (X7.5). = 22.5 ounces
4 total (x7.5). = 30 ounces
You will need 7.5 ounces of vinegar and a 22.5 ounces of oil.

Answer: 36
Step-by-step explanation: when you solve the problem 2/3n-5=19 you get 36.
The small number is 2.
The large number is 3.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x+1.
- x be the small integer.
- x+1 be the large integer.
The sum of these two consecutive integers = small integer + large integer
The sum of these two consecutive integers is x+x+1 = (2x+1)
It is given that,
- The sum of two consecutive integers is one less than three times the smaller integer.
- This means that, (2x+1) is one less than three times the smaller integer.
- Here, the small integer is represented as x.
<u>Therefore, it can determined that :</u>
(2x+1) = 3x-1
Keeping x term on one side and constants on other side,
3x-2x = 1+1
x = 2
Therefore, the small number is 2 and the large number is x+1 = 3.
