Answer:Cross multiply and solve for x.
x/6 = 5/1.25
let the height of building be h ft
h/6 = 60/15
h = 6(60/15) = 24
the building is 24 ft high
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first let’s covert the ft to in- 5ft is 60 in and 6ft is 72 in. Then we want to set up 2 fractions based on height and shadow, so we have 60/15=x/72 (we put x because that’s what we’re trying to find). Then we do cross multiplication so now we have 15x=4320. We divide 15, so now we have 4320/15=288. So the building is 288 in tall or 24ft tall! Glad to help! :)
Answer:
Tim read 81 pages.
Step-by-step explanation:
If he read 3 pages on Monday and tripled the amount of pages he red based of off the amount of pages he read the previous day, he would have read 3 pages on Monday, 9 pages on Tuesday, 27 pages on Wednesday, and 81 pages on Thursday.
Monday: 3
Tuesday: 3 x 3 = 9
Wednesday: 9 x 3 = 27
Thursday: 27 x 3 = 81
I hope this helps you! :D
