A fraction x/y is a ratio between two numbers x and y.
The ratio is preserved if both x and y are scaled up or down by the same number n.
This means you can obtain any fraction equivalent to x/y by multiplying both x and y by n, i.e. (n*x)/(n*y).
Then we have 1/4 = (2*1)/(2*4) = 2/8, for example.
Answer: meh
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is B since he bought 4 in all it is x+y =4 . x=dvd y= blue ray discs .

Answer:
36 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The key is to get the same amount of time for each.
9 * 12 = 108
At 12 minutes per job,
in 108 minutes Alyssa could do
108/12 = 9 jobs
At 9 minutes per job,
Together in 108 minutes they could do
108/9 = 12 jobs
--------------------------
In 108 minutes Mirada does
12 - 9 = 3 jobs
108/3 = 36 minutes per job
