Answer:
12:44, or if simplified 3:11
Step-by-step explanation:
In mathematics, a ratio indicates how many times one number contains another. For example, if there are eight oranges and six lemons in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six (that is, 8∶6, which is equivalent to the ratio 4∶3). Similarly, the ratio of lemons to oranges is 6∶8 (or 3∶4) and the ratio of oranges to the total amount of fruit is 8∶14 (or 4∶7).

One pie costs 0.10
you are buying 40 pies so...
40 x 0.10 = $4
one cup of coffee costs 0.50
you are buying 20 coffee so...
20 x 0.50 = $10
$4 + $10 = $14
It costs $14 to buy 40 pieces of pie and 20 cups of coffee
The answer is 16 ft! Hope my work helped.
