<h3>Answer:</h3>
  1. 28/100 = 7/25
  2. 100/28 = 25/7
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The wording "the ratio of A to B" means A/B.

Here, "the ratio of the weight of silicon to the weight of crust" means ...

... (28 tons)/(100 tons)

Canceling common factors (and common units), this is ...

... 28/100 = 7/25

___

Then "the ratio of the weight of crust to the weight of silicon" means ...

... (100 tons)/(28 tons) = 100/28 = 25/7

Answer:

b = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

C x D = A x B

15(11x - 91) = 7(2x + 10)

165x - 1365 = 14x + 70

add 1365 to both sides of the equation:

165x = 14x + 1435

subtract 14x from both sides:

151x = 1435

divide both sides by 151:

x = 9.5

b = 2(9.5) + 10 = 29
