Let the height of the tree be x, then
18 inches / 3 feet 9 inches = x / 21 feet 3 inches
18 inches / 45 inches = x / 255 inches
45x = 18 x 255 = 4590
x = 4590 / 45 = 102

Therefore, the tree is 102 inches = 8 feet, 6 inches tall

Several paint mixtures are made by mixing blue paint and white paint. Paint Colors Blue Paint White Paint Mixture A 5 cups 12 cu
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The mixture C is the correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given scenario, the calculation is as follows:

For Mixture A

Blue Paint - 5 cups

White Paint - 12 cups

The ratio between them is 5:12

For Mixture B

Blue Paint - 6 cups

White Paint - 6 cups

 The ratio between them is 6:6 = 12:12

It came by multiply the numerator and denominator by 12

For Mixture C

Blue Paint - 4 cups

White Paint - 12 cups

 The ratio between them is 4:12

For Mixture D

Blue Paint - 5 cups

White Paint - 6 cups

 The ratio between them is 5:6 = 10:12

It came by multiply the numerator and denominator by 12

As it can be seen that in all four mixtures the denominator is the same so for calculating the lowest ratio we have to see the small value in the numerator

As it can be seen that there is a small value of 4

hence, the mixture C is the correct option
