Answer:

21:24

Step-by-step explanation:

7:8 is your ratio

so if _:24 is equivalent, you have to figure out what 24 is divisible by to equal 8

8×3=24

so now we have to multiply 7 by 3

7×3=21

so your answer is 21:24 = 7:8

hope this helps :)

You would add up all of the numbers and then divide them by 5 since you have a total of 5 different sets of numbers (To get the mean). Then you have to find the median by putting all of the numbers in numerical order and get the number in the middle. Finally you subtract the median from the mean and you end up getting “B” as your answer.

Verdich [7]

To answer, determine the amount of paint that is needed in order to cover the whole of the sign. If we use the ratio and proportion and letting x be the unknown amount. The equation would be,
1/2 / 1/3 = x / 1
The value of x from the equation is equal to 1.5. Thus, the answer is letter D. 3/2 cups.

Samantha wants to use her savings of 1150 to buy shirts and watches for her family. The total price of the shirt she bought was

ioda

Answer-

The maximum number of watches that Samantha come by with her savings is 10.

Solution-

The amount of money Samantha has in her savings account = $1150

She wants to buy shirts and watches.

Cost of one shirt = $84

Cost of each watch = $99

Let she can buy maximum of x watches, so the net price of the watches is $99x.

Then,

$\Rightarrow 99x+84=1150\\\\\Rightarrow 99x=1150-84\\\\\Rightarrow 99x=1066\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{1066}{99}\\\\\Rightarrow x=10.77$

As the number of watches can not be in fraction, so at most she can buy 10 watches.
