Answer: the constant of proportionality is x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of the kiwi be x, then the height of the ostrich is 20 + 4x.
20 + 4x = 108
4x = 108 - 20 = 88
x = 88/4 = 22
The height of the kiwi is 22 inches.
We have an equation: 56/? = 4/100
Cross multiply:
4*? = 56*100
⇒ ? = 56*100/4
⇒ ?= 1,400
4% of 1,400 days is 56 days~
Hi there!

We can begin by making each fraction have a common denominator:
If we make each have a common denominator of ab, we get:

Simplify:

Multiply both sides by ab:

Move b to the opposite side:

Factor out b:

Divide by (ac - 1):
