A common denominator would be 24
Answer:
1/15 each
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 of chocolate is separated into 3
1/5 divided by 3 = 1/5 x 1/3 = 1/15 of the whole bar
I got 1:4
What I did was added all the catfish samples which was 15. Then I added all the samples together and got 60. I then put them in the ratio and simplified them.
15:60
1:4
In a proportional relationship, x and y will increase at the same rate. In order to find the value of x when y=4, we first have to find the ratio of x:y. We can do this by creating a fraction. After we know the ratio, simply replace the y value with 4 and solve for x. Here's the math:
y=15 when x=3 given values
y/x = 15/3 = 5 ratio of y to x
y=5x equation representing the proportional relationship
4=5x replace y with 4
4/5=x divide both sides by 5 to isolate x
Answer: The value of x=4/5 when y=4.
Hope this helps!
