There is no fixed equation when I arrived at these numbers.
I just did trial and error. I came up with 25 and -8 as the numbers.
200 ÷ 25 = 8 ⇒ the sum of 17 depends on the signs of each numbers.
-8 x 25 = -200
-8 + 25 = 17
Since they are similar, that means they are proportionally the same.
So KL is similar to PN
JL is similar to PM
So,
You need to find how much bigger is the second triangle from first.
It is proportionally scaled up.
KL/JL = PN/ PM
You basically put in order of triangles. Left triangle on left side of equal sign and right triangle on right side of equal sign. You put in denominator the similar sides and numerator the similar sides (the side that is similar to the side of the other triangle)
5/6 = PN / 9
Cross-multiply
PN * 6 = 5*9
6PN = 45
PN =45/6
PN =7.5
First, start off by listing a few of the numbers that follow the first three clues to see if you can narrow it down.
7,111,111
7,333,333
7,555,555
etc.
Then, start adding up digits to see if you're getting close.
7+1+1+1+1+1+1 = 13
7+3+3+3+3+3+3 = 25
7+5+5+5+5+5+5 = 37
Since 7,555,555 is too high, we step it down to 7,555,333
7+5+5+5+3+3+3 = 31
7,555,333 will work as an answer, as well as 7,333,555, since it's the same amount when the digits are added together.
Base in your question the coordinate is P is 2, PQ has a coordinate of 8 while PR has a coordinate of 12. To find the mid point of each segment you must first find the coordinate of QR which is from 8-12. So the answer will be
PQ = 5, PR = 6, and QR= 10
