Remark
Make up a proportion that relates the tree and its properties to the stick and its properties.
Givens
Stick height (s_h) = 4
Stick shadow(s_s) = 2
Tree shadow = t_s = 18
Tree height = x
Formula
s_h / s_s = x / t_s
Substitute and solve.
4/2 = x / 18 Cross multiply
4*18 = 2 * x
72 = 2x Divide by 2
72/2 = x
x = 36
The height of the tree is 36 feet.

Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Total -- 6 people
3 people -- 3/6 = 1/2
Therefore, the answer is 1/2
Answer:
distance = rate x time
3 and 1/5 = 3.2 and 3 and 3/5 = 3.6
distance = 3.2 x 4.5 = 14.4
14.4 = 3.6 x T
T = 14.4 / 3.6 = 4 <--- Pedro's time
12 lawns/9 hours = 1.33 lawns per hour
