Answer:

\frac{4}{1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

2/20 : 1/40

A). First re-write the ratio as follows;

(i) Change the ratio sign to division (÷). i.e

2/20 ÷ 1/40

(ii) Solve the expression by changing the division to multiplication(×). This also means you will need to swap the numerator and the denominator of the second term. i.e (1 / 40) becomes (40 / 1)

(2/20) × (40 / 1) = \frac{2}{20} × \frac{40}{1} = \frac{4}{1}

B). Now convert the result from above to unit rate. A unit rate is a rate in which the denominator has a value of 1.

So to convert   \frac{4}{1}  to unit rate, we keep simplifying until the denominator becomes 1.

And since the denominator is already 1, there is no need for further simplification.

Therefore, 2/20 : 1/40 to unit rate is  \frac{4}{1}

Answer:4/1

Step-by-step explanation:

I say this because you are supposed to divided it and the answer is 4 then you find the answer choice with a 1 as the denominator and it should say 4/1 and that is the correct answer.

What values of b satisfy 3(2b + 3)2 = 36?
alexira [117]
To find the answer, you need to solve for b.

2(2b + 3) = 12  divide both sides by 3
2b + 3 = 6  divide both sides by 2
2b = 3  subtract 3 from both sides
b = 1.5  divide both sides by 2

b = 1.5 satisfies the equation. if you plug 1.5 in, you get that the equation is true.
