Mathematics
1 answer:
Fiesta28 [93]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: 45

Explanation: Remember that dividing by a fraction is the same thing as <em>multiplying by the reciprocal</em> of that fraction or that fraction flipped.

Also, think of the 15 in this problem as 15/1.

So we can rewrite 15/1 ÷ 1/3 as 15/1 · 3/1.

Multiplying across the numerators and the denominators,

we find that our answer is 45/1 or just 45.

The small rectangle was enlarged to create the big rectangle.
kow [346]

Answer: the missing measure on the big rectangle is 30 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the small rectangle was enlarged to create the big rectangle, it means that they are similar. This also means that the dimensions of the larger rectangle different form the dimensions of the smaller rectangle by a constant ratio or factor.

The smaller rectangle has a length of 12 feet and width of 2 feet. The larger rectangle has a length of x feet and width of 5 feet. This means that

x/12 = 5/2

Cross multiplying, it becomes

2x = 12 × 5 = 60

x = 60/2 = 30

(24-y)/y=5
24-y=5y
-y-5y=-24
-6y=-24
y=-24/-6=4

x=24-y
x=24-4
x=20
