Answer:

\Large \boxed{11.08}

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are congruent, we can use ratios to solve.

AD/DC = BE/EC

Let the length of EC be x.

6/14 = 4.75/x

Solve for x.

Cross multiply.

6 × x = 14 × 4.75

6x = 66.5

Divide both sides by 6.

(6x)/6 = (66.5)/6

x = 11.083333...

Greetings from Brasil...

Here we can use similarities of triangles

AC/DC = BC/EC

20/14 = (4.75 + X)/X

X ≅ 11.1

Answer:

Instead of 16 write 36

Step-by-step explanation:

when we see this carefully 4/6= 24/16

This is an equivalent fraction

when we multiply 4×6 we get 24 so we must multiply 6 with 6 . so the answer is 36.

Rolls are being prepared to go to grocery stores. Divide 72 rolls into 2 groups so the ratio is 3 to 5.
tekilochka [14]
To do this, nice it to add 3 and 5, then divide 72 by the result of sum 3 and 5. Finally multiply it by 3 and by 5 to get the result.
Lets do this
3+5=8
72:8=9 - number of rolls in 1 "unit" 
9*3=27  - first group
9*5=45  - second group
