Answer:

  4 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of numbers of students is ...

  hot dog : hamburger = 16 : 12 = 4 : 3

__

To reduce the ratio to lowest terms, remove the common factor of 4 from each number. 16 = 4·4; 12 = 4·3.

Answer:

The \: ratio \: is \: \: 4 :  3 \:i .e \:  \frac{4}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

number \: of \: students  \: who  \: chose \: \\   to \:  eat  \: a \:  hot  \: dog  \: is \: 16. \\ number \: of \: students  \: who  \: chose \: \\   to \:  eat  \: a \:  hamburger  \: is \: 12. \\

the \: ratio \: is \: number \: of \: students  \: who  \: chose \: \\   to \:  eat  \: a \:  hot  \: dog  \: \div \\ number \: of \: students  \: who  \: chose \: \\   to \:  eat  \: a \:  hamburger  \\ so \: the \: ratio \:is  \:  \frac{16}{12}  =  \frac{4}{3}

4. Two friends, Sequoia and Raven, sold organic chap sticks at the local market.
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Sequoia sold 2 chap sticks while Raven sold 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since two friends, Sequoia and Raven, sold organic chap sticks at the local market, and Sequoia sold her chap sticks for $ 4 and Raven sold hers for $ 3 each, and in the first hour, their total combined sales were $ 20, if in the first hour, the friends sold a total of 6 chap sticks between them, to determine the number of chap sticks each of the friends sold during this time the following calculation must be performed:

6 x 4 + 0 x 3 = 24

5 x 4 + 1 x 3 = 23

2 x 4 + 4 x 3 = 20

Therefore, Sequoia sold 2 chap sticks while Raven sold 4.

Joe is responsible for reserving hotel rooms for a company trip. His company changes plans and increases how many people are goi
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

<h2>He is going to pay 40*900= $36000 for the reservation</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

We are told that they need at least 50 total rooms.

Joe has paid for 16 rooms since Joe can only reserve rooms in block, and a block has 8 rooms, then Joe has paid for 2 blocks.

There is a deficit of 50-16= 34rooms

Required

The Number of blocks Joe need to reserve in addition is 34/8

=4.25

The blocks can not be in decimal, so we need to approximate, which is 5 blocks

Therefore Joe is going to reserve 5*8= 40 rooms

<u>He is going to pay 40*900= $36000 for the reservation</u>
