Answer:

x is equal to 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this, we need to set it up as a proportion.

6/8 = x/20

Now that we have the proportion, we need to cross multiply to solve.

6*20 = 8*x

120 = 8x

15 = x

What ratio is proportional to 18/21
Doss [256]

Answer:

There are many.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you say proportional, you are looking for a ratio that is equivalent to the ratio given. In your case, there are many so you might need to be more specific. But still, we can help you figure it out.

An easy way to do this would be to scale it down to its simplest form and then move upwards. To find proportional ratios, just multiply denominator and the denominator with the same factor.

\dfrac{18}{21} = \dfrac{6}{7}

That is your ratio in its simplest form. Now we can scale up, I'll show you how to do one completely:

\dfrac{6}{7} x \dfrac{2}{2} = \dfrac{12}{14}

That's the same ratio scaled up by a factor of 2.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

\dfrac{6}{7} x \dfrac{3}{3} = \dfrac{18}{21}

That's the ratio given

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

\dfrac{6}{7} x \dfrac{4}{4} = \dfrac{24}{28}

Scaled up by a factor of 4

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

\dfrac{6}{7} x \dfrac{5}{5} = \dfrac{30}{35}

Scaled up by a factor of 5.

The list goes on and on.

Naddik [55]

Question:

A shop is having a sales all items are reduced by 25%. Work out the sale price of an item normally priced at £60?

Answer:

The new price is £45

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sales\ price = \pounds 60

Rate = 25\%

First, calculate the reduction

Reduction = Rate * Sales\ price

Reduction = 25\% * \pounds 60

Reduction = \pounds 15

The new price is:

New = Sales\ price - Reduction

New = \pounds 60 - \pounds 15

New = \pounds 45
