Answer:
No coz 2:3 is 2+3=5
1:2 is 1+2=3 so they are not equivalent.
77 unicorns, because yesterday the ratio was 6:5 and today it is 3:4. If you add the numbers for both ratios together, you get 11 and 7. Finding the LCM of these two gives 77 (because 7 and 11 are both prime).
You find the LCM of the sums because when you find values based on ratios, you divide value by the sum of the ratio.
e.g. I have 100 fruits. The ratio of apples to oranges is 2:3. How many apples are there?
To solve this you'd add 2 and 3 (5), divide 100 by 5 (20), multiply that by 2 (40) because that's the ratio of apples to oranges.
In this case, you do the reverse. So If I have 77 unicorns, then yesterday there were (77/11 = 7, 7*6= 42, 7*5= 35) 42 green unicorns and 35 yellow. The sum of 42 and 35 is 77. If you do this process with the other ratio you'll get similar results as well.
Answer:
Since Paula has her own business of making cakes for special occasions, and the total price (P) of one of Paula's cakes is represented by the equation P = 0.75S +10, where S is the number of people the cake serves, for determine what does the 0.75 represent in this situation and what does the 10 represent in this equation, the following mathematical reasoning must be carried out:
P is the price of the cake
S is the number of servings
Therefore, 0.75 is the value of each serving, which can be variable (the number of servings can vary)
In turn, 10 is the fixed cost of each cake.
It's 180-50-50=180-100=80°
