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: 40
Step-by-step explanation:
I can see the answer is 40, but let's try to figure out how to do it.
I like to use the rule of 3. Let's put the number of passes on the left side and the number of games on the right side.
''x'' represents the number of passes in 15 games.
Solve for x;
Answer:
663
Step-by-step explanation:
the total number of students can be determined using this equation :
(total ratio of Chinese and Indian students / total ratio of students) x n = 468
total ratio of Chinese and Indian students = 4 + 8 = 12
total ratio of students 4 + 8 + 5 = 17
N = TOTAL NUMBER OF STUDENTS
12/17) x n = 468
multiply both sides of the equation by 17/12
n = 663
Answer:
all you have to do is multiply it through and divide it out.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
57/100 + 3/10
they need common denominators so a common denominator is 100
so 10x10=100 and 3x10= 30 so we now got
57/100 + 30/100 which is 87/100
