EF = 15 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

If the quadrilaterals, ABCD and EFGH are similar their side lengths will be of the same ratio throughout.

Comparing the quadrilaterals, we have AB and EF are similar, BC and FG are similar, CD and GH are similar, DA and HE are similar.

So the ratio of all these sides will be equal.

Step 2:

\frac{AB}{EF} :\frac{BC}{FG} : \frac{CD}{GH} :\frac{DA}{HE} .

Of these lengths, we only have the values for AB, BC, CD, DA, GH, HE and need to determine the length of EF. By substituting the known values the ratio becomes;

\frac{5}{EF} :\frac{4}{12} :\frac{6}{18} .

\frac{5}{EF} : \frac{1}{3} : \frac{1}{3} .

So EF = 3(5) = 15 cm. Which is the second option.

madam [21]

Answer:

77% and as a fraction it would be 77/100

Step-by-step explanation:

0.77 is a decimal that is in the hundredths place so you already know that it'll be 77% right away then for the fraction you would just put it over 100 but since 77 is an uneven number you cannot simplify it otherwise you would.

A fruit drink recipe calls for papaya juice and carrot juice. This equation
12345 [234]

Answer:

There is 1/4 of a quart of papaya juice

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure this out I divided 8 and 8 to get one cup of carrot juice. Then I divided 2 and 8 to figure how much papaya juice was there for one cup of carrot juice. Then after I divided for the papaya I got 0.25 or 1/4 of a quart of papaya.
