The ratio of red paint to blue paint is 2:1. What does the ratio 2:1 mean?

This means the for every 2 units of red paint, there is 1 unit of blue paint
exg
in a mixture, mix a red and blue paint to get a type of purple that is the ratio of 2:1 (red:blue)
so exg if you wanted 3 gallons you would do 2 gallons of red+1 gallon of blue since 2+1=3
it could also mean quantity
there are 2 tiles painted red for every 1 tile painted blue resulting in 2 unit of red paint to 1 unit of blue

Answer:

Use compatible numbers that are close to the actual numbers

Choose 36 for 35 3/4 and 6 for 5 7/8 because the divide evenly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compatible numbers are numbers that are close to the actual values of a particular number. They make estimating easier when yo udo the different operations.

We choose 36 for 35 3/4 because 36 is closer to its value that 34. Conveniently, 5 7/8 is closer to 6 than 5, and they divide evenly. So a best estimate for the number of rows Holly can make would be:

36/6 = 6 rows.

Complete the generic rectangle (PLEASE HELP)

navik [9.2K]

I believe the area of the blank rectangle, the biggest one, is 2800. The whole rectangle all together is 3225.

Explanation:

Since the length of one of the rectangles is 70, the rectangle with an area of 210 will have a side length of 3. This means the rectangle with an area of 15 has a side length of 5. <em>That</em> means the rectangle with an area of 200 has a side length of 40. Therefore, the blank rectangle has an area of 2800, as it's 2 side lengths are 70 and 40.
