Answer:
a : c = 7 : 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The two ratios (a : b and b : c) both have b in common, so to work out what a : c is, we can use b to 'bridge' the two ratios together.
However, in a : b, b is 4. But in b : c, b is 2. We need to make sure b is the same in both ratios before we can combine the ratios together. The easiest way to do this is to multiply b : c by 2 to get b : c = 4 : 10. Now b is 4 in both ratios.
So now, we can combine the two ratios together to get a : b : c = 7 : 4 : 10. Since we only want a : c though, we can just drop the b and get a : c = 7 : 10. No simplifying is necessary since the ratio is already in its simplest form.
Hope that helps! :)
well, in short, the students and chaperones are at a 2 : 9 ratio, and we know there are 171 students, how many chaperones then, so long they maintain a 2:9 ratio?
Answer:
42.1
Explanation step-by-step:
Working out the lenght of the blue-dashed line:
SOH
47 is the Hypotenuse.
the blue line is the adjacent.
adjacent= Cos(30) x47
adjacent= 40.7
Working out x :
40.7 is the opposite this time.
x is the adjacent.
x = 40.7/ Tan(44)
x = 42.1
