To get people interested to read about it!!!!!!
Answer:
2 to 8
3 to 12
4 to 16
Explanation:
Ratio of cups of water to cups of milk = 1 to 4 = 1 : 4
Thus, three equivalent ratios of the situation described above will be:
✔️Since 1 cup of water is to 4 cups of milk (¼) therefore:
2 cups of water will require x cups of milk (²/x)
Thus:
¼ = ²/x
Cross multiply
x = 4*2
x = 8
Equivalent ratio: 2 to 8
✔️Since 1 cup of water is to 4 cups of milk (¼) therefore:
3 cups of water will require x cups of milk (³/x)
Thus:
¼ = ³/x
Cross multiply
x = 4*3
x = 12
Equivalent ratio: 3 to 12
✔️Since 1 cup of water is to 4 cups of milk (¼) therefore:
4 cups of water will require x cups of milk (⁴/x)
Thus:
¼ = ⁴/x
Cross multiply
x = 4*4
x = 16
Equivalent ratio: 4 to 12
Answer:
My first distinct memory of reading was in Middle School. I never really got into reading in elementary because I was not interested in the books that the teachers were hand feeding us, but when I got my first library card in 7th grade and I finally got to choose my own books, things changed for me.
One of the first books I read was leisurely was called Maximum Ride by James Patterson. I absolutely loved the book, it was paperback and tucked away in a corner all the way in the back of the children's section. It was like finding a diamond in the rough. Or maybe it was just because the books were organized by last name.
Anyways when I first opened the book and started reading, I noticed that Patterson's narration style was in first person. I felt like I was a part of the story in the ways that he would break the fourth wall and speak to his readers through the characters. It was an incredible experience for me and I got so lost in the book that i had read a third of the way through before realized that I had spent almost an hour in the library.
The gift in question is the parson's freehold, an ecclesiastic benefit that will allow Elinor’s Romantic interest, Edward Ferrars to have a steady source of income that will make him a suitable choice for Lucy Steele. He had secretly promised to wed her when he was younger and although he does not love her he intends to marry her out of respect and moral principles. Edward is not too handsome and quite shy but Elinor knows that behind such characteristics he is a loving, moral person who deeply cares for others and is loyal to them, at the expense of his own welfare. She loves him deeply though secretly and is quite dismayed and shocked when she learn Colonel Brandon’s gesture. The situation is quite a conundrum, since Colonel Brandon loves Marianne, who loves the young, handsome, charming and dashing John Willoughby and Elinor loves Edward Ferrars. She is in the middle of the whole ordeal and she is tasked with announcing the “good news” to Ferrars which makes it even more, painful for her. This is a pivotal moment in the plot as it forces Elinor to question her own inflexible adherence to sense. Even though she is willing to avoid a confrontation and to remain neutral and polite her love, that is to say her sensibility will force her to display her feelings. In other words, just as much as Marianne’s Romantic disappointments have forced her to have more sense, Elinor’s impossible situation will force her to have more sensibility (as they will also force Edward, who is very much like her though due to different reasons).
