Answer:

There are 36 blueberries and 12 Strawberries! I hope this helps you out. :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, so I have a really easy way for you to do this and understand! :)

Basically, you can just add the two numbers in the ratio together and divide that from the bigger total. For example, 9+3=12 and 48/12 is 4. Then you can just multiply each beginning ratio by four and you have your answer: 9*4=36 and 3*4 equals 12. An what does 12+36 equal? 48.

Answer:

36 blueberries and 12 strawberries

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Total number of berries in the bowl = 48

And, the ratio of blueberries to strawberries is 9 to 3

So by considering the above information, the each berry contains buy following equation

9X + 3X = 48

12X = 48

So, X = 4

Now the blueberries is 9X.

So, 9 × 4 = 36

And, the strawberries is 3X.

So, 3 × 4 = 12

Set up and solve the following using dimensional analysis.
Softa [21]
1).  Multiply (5400 inches) by (1 foot / 12 inch) then by (1 mile / 5280 foot).

      (See explanation at the bottom)

         =      (5400 inch) x (1 foot / 12 inch) x (1 mile / 5280 foot)

         =      (5400 x 1 x 1 / 12 x 5280)  (inch - foot - mile / inch - foot) 

         =          0.0852  mile  


2).  Multiply (16 week) by (7 day/week) then by (24 hour/day)
       then by (60 minute/hour) then by (60 sec/minute).

3).  Multiply (54 yards) by (3 foot/yard) then by (1 meter/3.28 foot)
       and then by (1000 mm/meter)

4).  Multiply (36 cm/second) by (3600 second/hour) then by (1 meter/100 cm)
      then by (1 mile/1609.3 meter).

5).  Look up how many grams in a pound  ('P')
       Look up how many mL in a gallon       ('G')

      Multiply (1.09 g/mL) by ( 1 pound/ P gram) then by (1 gallon/ G mL)

6).  Multiply (32 foot/sec) by (1 meter / 3.28 foot) then by (60 sec/minute).


Each time I told you to multiply by something, it was always a fraction
where the numerator and denominator are equal, like (60 seconds/minute)
or (1 foot / 12 inch).  Since the top and bottom of the fraction are equal, the
value of the fraction is ' 1 ' , and multiplying by it doesn't change the value,
it only changes the units ... that's what this whole exercise is about.
When you multiply, KEEP the units in the product, and then, after you multiply, you can 'cancel' units out of the top and bottom of the product.
Like if you have 'feet' on top and bottom, just cross them out.  When you're done, if you did it correctly, the last unit you end up with will be the one you want.

in year 4 the store sold 112% of the total number of scooters sold during the previous three years combined determine the number
Margarita [4]

Answer:

2, 240

Step-by-step explanation:

In the table, the values should be

Year 1   725  

Year 2   579

Year 3   696

Since Year 4 sold 112% of the previous 3 years combined, we add 725+579+696=2000. We can find 112% by writing a proportion.

\frac{112}{100} =\frac{x}{2000}

We solve through cross multiplication of numerator and denominator of the opposite fraction.

112(2000)=100(x)\\224000=100x\\2,240=x
