Why can you multiply or divide both terms of a ratio by the same number without changing the value of the ratio?

3:4 = 6:8

\frac{3}{4} =  \frac{6}{8}


The same principle is used with fractions. The identity property of multiplication states that any number times 1 is the same number. Since \frac{2}{2} = 1, the fraction/ratio does not change in value.

Answer:

x > -5  in the answer


Step-by-step explanation:

(5 - 3x) / 4 < 5

multiplying both sides by 4:-

5 - 3x < 20

-3x < 15

x > 15/-3

x > -5  (Note the inequality sign is flipped because we are dividing by a negative number)

Flauer [41]
The answer is 5 7/8
b/c 2 1/2 = 2 4/8
so then convert 8 3/8 as an improper fraction which is 67/8
and do the same w/ 2 4/8 which is 20/8
the do: 67/8 - 20/8 = 47/8
simplify 47/8 = 5 7/8.
Your answer is 5 7/8 inches of ribbon left.
