To solve this you would make a triangle, Assuming you had a piece of paper.
It would look like the picture included (where ever that is) sorry for the horrible drawing with mouse.
You can then you Pythagorean Theorem to solve this

width will be (a)
put in your variables


Subtract 5184 over and get

square root both sides and get
a=54
the field is 54 meters wide
The correct answer is 60 raisins. To get this answer you will write a proportion of M & Ms to raisins and create and equivalent ratio using the number 36.
After you have the proportion set up, you will use cross products to solve for the number of raisins.
You can also use equivalent ratios to find the number of raisins.
Both of these strategies are shown in the attached picture.

The associative property of addition is shown in equations where the order in which the evaluation is made does not change the result, providing the numbers remain in the same order. Option B demonstrates this.
The price:
- last year: $2.25
- this year: $.45
The decrease: $2.25 - $.45 = $1.80
2.25 : 1.80 = 100 : x
2.25 x = 180
x = 180 : 2.25
x = 80
Answer:
The percent of decrease is A ) 80%
